《London Conversation》歌词

[00:00:00] London Conversation - John Martyn

[00:00:09] In a foreign city once again

[00:00:14] You wave at weakly in the night

[00:00:19] The early sun of London morning

[00:00:24] Burned the darkness with unanswered light

[00:00:29] But morning found you crying

[00:00:35] Waiting for a woman

[00:00:37] Where she left you in an empty state of mind

[00:00:45] Waiting not for her but for relief from passing time

[00:00:54] And a young friend talking softly

[00:00:59] As the mist keep tumbling down

[00:01:05] But the woman waiting for him near

[00:01:09] Stayed and told you of the peace that could be found

[00:01:15] And a fallen heart was woken

[00:01:20] In your tired waiting time

[00:01:25] And you thought you might begin again

[00:01:31] From all the ashes of your mind

[00:01:46] And though he used no poetry

[00:01:51] His words are weaving songs

[00:01:56] And the peace they were recalling

[00:02:01] Were good roads that you might have walked along

[00:02:07] And the skies you saw were all the same

[00:02:12] Although his words were not your own

[00:02:17] But the words and images you've spoken

[00:02:22] Are the ashes from a peace you'd never known
