《The Living Years》歌词

[00:00:00] The Living Years (有生之年) - James Last (詹姆斯·拉斯特)

[00:00:29] Every generation

[00:00:34] Blames the one before

[00:00:39] And all of their frustrations

[00:00:43] Come beating on your door

[00:00:48] I know that I'm a prisoner

[00:00:50] To all my father held so dear

[00:00:53] I know that I'm a hostage

[00:00:55] To all his hopes and fears

[00:00:57] I just wish I could have told him

[00:01:00] In the living years

[00:01:07] Crumpled bits of paper

[00:01:12] Filled with imperfect thoughts

[00:01:17] Stilted conversations

[00:01:21] I'm afraid that's all we've got

[00:01:26] You say you just don't see it

[00:01:29] He says it's perfect sense

[00:01:31] You just can't get agreement

[00:01:34] In this present tense

[00:01:36] We all talk a different language

[00:01:38] Talkin' in defense

[00:01:45] Say it loud say it loud

[00:01:49] Say it clear say it clear

[00:01:54] You can listen as well as you hear

[00:02:04] It's too late it's too late

[00:02:09] When we die when we die

[00:02:13] To admit we don't see eye to eye

[00:02:23] So we open up a quarrel

[00:02:28] Between the present and the past

[00:02:33] We only sacrifice the future

[00:02:38] It's the bitterness that lasts

[00:02:43] So don't yield to the fortunes

[00:02:46] You sometimes see as fate

[00:02:48] It may have a new perspective

[00:02:50] On a different date

[00:02:53] And if you don't give up

[00:02:54] And don't give in

[00:02:55] You may just be ok

[00:03:01] Say it loud

[00:03:06] Say it clear say it clear

[00:03:11] You can listen as well as you hear

[00:03:20] It's too late

[00:03:25] When we die when we die

[00:03:31] To admit we don't see eye to eye

[00:03:41] I wasn't there that morning

[00:03:45] When my father passed away

[00:03:50] I didn't get to tell him

[00:03:55] All the things I had to say

[00:04:00] I think I caught his spirit

[00:04:02] Later that same year

[00:04:05] I'm sure I heard his echo

[00:04:07] In my baby's new born tears

[00:04:09] I just wish I could have told him

[00:04:12] In the living years

[00:04:18] Say it loud say it clear

[00:04:28] You can listen as well as you hear

[00:04:37] It's too late when we die

[00:04:47] To admit we don't see eye to eye

[00:04:56] Say it loud say it loud

[00:05:01] Say it clear say it clear

[00:05:06] Say it loud say it clear

[00:05:15] Say it loud say it clear

[00:05:25] Say it loud say it loud

[00:05:30] Say it clear say it clear

[00:05:35] Say it loud say it clear

[00:05:44] Say it loud say it clear
