《Like William McKinley》歌词

[00:00:01] Like William McKinley - Al Stewart

[00:00:04] I got a letter it came in the mail today

[00:00:15] I saw by the stamp it was sent from a ocean away

[00:00:24] No need to open it up I knew what it must say

[00:00:33] I’ll just go back to the dream I was having

[00:00:40] Before love went astray

[00:00:45] I’ll sit on my porch like William McKinley

[00:00:50] And I’ll let the world come to me

[00:00:54] And if it’s too busy I really won’t mind

[00:00:58] And there’s no place I want to be

[00:01:03] Now and again I will open a window

[00:01:08] And stare at the overcast sky

[00:01:12] And put you away in a drawer in my mind

[00:01:16] And I’ll just bid all of my troubles goodbye

[00:01:24] The country round here is deserted there’s no one at all

[00:01:36] People come here for the summer and leave in the fall

[00:01:44] You followed after them disappeared into the night

[00:01:53] Now all that remains is a footprint you made

[00:02:01] In the mud frozen in white

[00:02:05] I’ll sit on my porch like William McKinley

[00:02:10] And I’ll let the world come to me

[00:02:15] And if it’s too busy I really won’t mind

[00:02:19] And there’s no place I want to be

[00:02:24] Now and again I will open the window

[00:02:28] And stare at the overcast sky

[00:02:33] And put you away in a drawer in my mind

[00:02:37] And I’ll just bid all of my troubles goodbye
