My Father's House (我父亲的房子) - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)[00:00:00]
Last night I dreamed that I was a child[00:00:09]
Out where the pines grow wild and tall[00:00:19]
I was trying to make[00:00:29]
It home through the forest[00:00:34]
Before the darkness falls[00:00:39]
I heard the wind rustling through the trees[00:00:49]
And ghostly voices rose from the fields[00:00:59]
I ran with my heart pounding[00:01:08]
Down that broken path[00:01:13]
With the devil snappin at my heels[00:01:20]
I broke through the trees [00:01:29]
And there in the night[00:01:32]
My fathers house stood[00:01:39]
Shining hard and bright[00:01:43]
The branches and brambles tore[00:01:49]
My clothes and scratched my arms[00:01:52]
But I ran till I fell shaking in his arms[00:01:59]
I awoke and I imagined[00:02:19]
The hard things that pulled us apart[00:02:23]
They will never again sir [00:02:29]
Tear us from each others hearts[00:02:33]
I got dressed and to that house I did ride[00:02:40]
From out on the road [00:02:49]
I could see its windows shining in light[00:02:52]
I walked up the steps and stood on the porch[00:02:59]
A woman I didn't recognize came[00:03:09]
And spoke to me through a chained door[00:03:13]
I told her my story and who I'd come for[00:03:19]
She said I'm sorry [00:03:29]
But no one by that name lives here anymore[00:03:31]
My fathers house shines hard and bright[00:04:01]
It stands like a beacon calling me in the night[00:04:10]
Calling and calling [00:04:20]
So cold and alone[00:04:25]
Shining cross this dark highway[00:04:30]
Where our sins lie unatoned[00:04:33]
