《Goodnight To Mother’s Dream》歌词

[00:00:00] Goodnight To Mother's Dream - Nanci Griffith (南西·葛瑞芬)

[00:00:14] Flipping bottle caps through the ring around the moon

[00:00:20] All alone on a Saturday night with the stars in bloom

[00:00:27] I am a vision of my mother's dream come true

[00:00:31] Built this house out in the hills

[00:00:35] All by my own will

[00:00:38] I've got love enough for two

[00:00:40] But it's just me and this old moon ah

[00:00:46] And the sailors on the water

[00:00:49] They all want the captain's daughter

[00:00:52] They want her beauty and her youth

[00:00:55] To grace their bow out on the sea

[00:01:01] Me I'm getting older and I'm plain as plain as can be

[00:01:07] Got a bank full of mother's dreams

[00:01:10] Maybe mother just didn't see

[00:01:13] That love would be the only thing

[00:01:17] Her daughter would ever need

[00:01:32] I am the heart not taken

[00:01:34] The one thought not worth breaking

[00:01:40] I am the late blooming rose

[00:01:42] With only her mother's dream to hold

[00:01:47] On this less traveled road

[00:01:50] Who really knows

[00:01:53] Maybe the hearts not taken

[00:01:57] Are truly made of gold

[00:02:14] I'm gonna flip one more bottle cap up at the moon

[00:02:21] I've got an early call with so much work to do

[00:02:27] But when I go inside I'm gonna let my back door slam

[00:02:32] Mother to tell you the truth

[00:02:35] I would trade your dream away

[00:02:39] Just to hear some loved one say

[00:02:41] I love you too

[00:02:45] And the sailors on the water

[00:02:48] They all want the captain's daughter

[00:02:52] They want her beauty and her youth

[00:02:54] To grace their bow out on the sea

[00:03:01] Me I'm getting older and I'm plain as plain as can be

[00:03:06] Got a bank full of mother's dreams

[00:03:09] Maybe mother just didn't see

[00:03:13] That love would be the only thing

[00:03:16] Her daughter would ever need

[00:03:27] Say goodnight to the moon

[00:03:33] I'll say I love you to the moon

[00:03:39] And to my mother too

[00:03:48] Buenos suenos to the moon
