Before The Deluge (洪水之前) (Live) - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)/Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)[00:00:00]

Some of them were dreamers[00:01:10]

And some of them were fools[00:01:14]

Who were making plans and thinking of the future[00:01:18]

With the energy of the innocent[00:01:26]

They were gathering the tools[00:01:30]

They would need to make their journey back to nature[00:01:35]

While the sand slipped through the opening[00:01:43]

And their hands reached for the golden ring[00:01:47]

With their hearts they turned to each other's heart for refuge[00:01:51]

In the troubled years that came before the deluge[00:02:00]

Some of them knew pleasure[00:02:09]

And some of them knew pain[00:02:13]

And for some of them it was only the moment that mattered[00:02:17]

And on the brave and crazy wings of youth[00:02:26]

They went flying around in the rain[00:02:30]

And their feathers once so fine grew torn and tattered[00:02:34]

And in the end they traded their tired wings[00:02:43]

For the resignation that living brings[00:02:48]

And exchanged love's bright and fragile glow[00:02:52]

For the glitter and the rouge[00:02:56]

And in the moment they were swept before the deluge[00:03:00]

Now let the music keep our spirits high[00:03:08]

And let the buildings keep our children dry[00:03:16]

Let creation reveal it's secrets by and by[00:03:22]

By and by[00:03:30]

When the light that's lost within us reaches the sky[00:03:34]

Some of them were angry[00:03:44]

At the way the earth was abused[00:03:47]

By the men who learned how to forge her beauty into power[00:03:51]

And they struggled to protect her from them[00:03:59]

Only to be confused[00:04:04]

By the magnitude of her fury in the final hour[00:04:08]

And when the sand was gone and the time arrived[00:04:16]

In the naked dawn only a few survived[00:04:20]

And in attempts to understand a thing so simple and so huge[00:04:24]

Believed that they were meant to live after the deluge[00:04:33]

Now let the music keep our spirits high[00:04:40]

And let the buildings keep our children dry[00:04:49]

Let creation reveal it's secrets by and by[00:04:55]

By and by[00:05:02]

When the light that's lost within us reaches the sky[00:05:06]
