《The Last Nail》歌词

[00:00:01] The Last Nail - Dan Fogelberg

[00:00:24] I saw you running

[00:00:27] Ahead of the crowd

[00:00:30] I chased but never thought I'd catch you

[00:00:36] You said you loved me

[00:00:39] But you had to be free

[00:00:42] And I let you

[00:00:47] Why did I let you

[00:00:49] We walked together

[00:00:52] Through the gardens and graves

[00:00:55] I watched you grow

[00:00:57] To be a woman

[00:01:02] Living on promises

[00:01:04] That nobody gave

[00:01:07] To no one

[00:01:13] They were given to no one

[00:01:30] I started listening

[00:01:32] To the wind and the rain

[00:01:36] You strained your ears

[00:01:38] But could hear nothing

[00:01:42] One night I thought

[00:01:45] I heard them

[00:01:45] Whisper my name

[00:01:48] And I went running

[00:01:55] I left a trail of footprints

[00:01:58] Deep in the snow

[00:02:01] I swore one day

[00:02:03] I would retrace them

[00:02:08] But when I turned around

[00:02:10] I found that the wind

[00:02:13] Had erased them

[00:02:19] Now I'll never replace them

[00:02:37] Fly away my sweet bird over the land

[00:02:43] Take life for all the freedom you can

[00:02:49] But if you ever should need a man

[00:02:54] Well the offer still stands

[00:03:23] I hear you've taken on a husband and child

[00:03:29] And live somewhere in Pennsylvania

[00:03:35] I never thought you'd ever sever the string

[00:03:41] But I can't blame you none

[00:03:48] So let the ashes fall

[00:03:51] And lay where they will

[00:03:54] Just say that once

[00:03:56] You used to know me

[00:04:01] One last time sing that old song

[00:04:03] We used to know

[00:04:06] But this time sing oh this time sing

[00:04:16] A little more slowly

[00:04:33] Fly away my sweet bird over the land

[00:04:39] Take life for all the freedom you can

[00:04:45] But if you ever should need a man

[00:04:50] Well the offer still stands
