《Kingdom Come》歌词

[00:00:01] Kingdom Come - Judy Collins (朱蒂·柯林斯)

[00:00:19] It was seven months since 9/11

[00:00:22] And the work was almost done

[00:00:25] It was seven months since 9/11

[00:00:27] And the work had just begun

[00:00:30] Ground Zero lit the evening sky

[00:00:33] Like a beacon through the heart

[00:00:36] The searchlights drove through Heaven's doors

[00:00:39] And blew them far apart

[00:00:42] A few miles north on the Hudson River

[00:00:45] We had gathered for a sort of wake

[00:00:48] Nobody felt like celebrating

[00:00:50] But the Firemen needed some kind of break

[00:00:53] They'd been to so many funerals

[00:00:56] And seen so many God-awful sights

[00:00:59] They'd been to Ground Zero from dawn to dusk

[00:01:02] And round the clock some nights

[00:01:05] To Kingdom come to hell and gone

[00:01:12] To somewhere far away

[00:01:17] Where murder doesn't break the heart

[00:01:22] On a sunny day

[00:01:34] I was all dressed up like

[00:01:36] The rest of the crowd

[00:01:37] At the Roxy Club that night

[00:01:40] The men and women in Uniform

[00:01:42] Tried hard to keep it light

[00:01:46] Kevin Bacon played and sang

[00:01:48] And people start to smile

[00:01:52] Chris Bodi played his silver horn

[00:01:54] With rhythm and with style

[00:01:57] I sang my song Amazing Grace

[00:02:00] And people laughed and cried

[00:02:04] Ronan Tynan sang Danny Boy and

[00:02:06] Not an eye was dry

[00:02:09] Steve Buscemi spoke of life

[00:02:12] At Engine 55

[00:02:14] Of how these heroes

[00:02:16] Stayed the course and

[00:02:18] Saved so many lives

[00:02:20] To Kingdom come to hell and gone

[00:02:27] To somewhere far away

[00:02:32] Where murder doesn't break the heart

[00:02:37] On a sunny day

[00:02:55] A burly man with a handsome face

[00:02:58] Stuck out his hand and smiled

[00:03:01] Say, meet my wife, we like your songs

[00:03:04] We've been with you mile for mile

[00:03:07] Though he had a rugged face

[00:03:10] I knew I saw the hurt

[00:03:12] Then he pointed to a spot above

[00:03:16] The collar of his shirt

[00:03:19] Just look here on the back of my neck

[00:03:21] There's a tattoo, can you see?

[00:03:24] Just right here I got up close

[00:03:27] And saw the number 343

[00:03:30] The number of the Firemen

[00:03:33] Who were lost upon that day

[00:03:36] The numbers of those heroes

[00:03:39] Ground Zero was their grave

[00:03:42] To Kingdom come to hell and gone

[00:03:48] To somewhere far away

[00:03:53] Where murder doesn't break the heart

[00:03:59] On a sunny day

[00:04:16] Those firemen loaded up with gear

[00:04:19] Climbed to their death's that day

[00:04:22] Along with all the other hundreds

[00:04:25] Blasted on their way

[00:04:28] Police and EMS and those

[00:04:31] On whom death took its toll

[00:04:33] And more whose dreams will never dawn

[00:04:37] More than three thousand souls

[00:04:40] I left the party after that

[00:04:42] I could not stay my tears

[00:04:45] For all our gifts for all our hopes

[00:04:48] For all our nameless fears

[00:04:51] For all our heroes men and women

[00:04:54] Lost on that black day

[00:04:57] Those firemen with courage

[00:04:59] In their hearts so strong and brave

[00:05:02] Who made sure in their final hours

[00:05:05] There were 30,000 saved

[00:05:09] They've gone to where there are no tears

[00:05:15] And every heart is gay

[00:05:21] And they won't be forgotten on a sunny day

[00:05:28] To Kingdom come to hell and gone

[00:05:35] To somewhere far away

[00:05:40] Where murder doesn't break the heart

[00:05:45] On a sunny day

[00:05:48] Where murder doesn't break the heart

[00:05:54] On a sunny day
