Tie That Binds - Jim Reeves (吉姆·里夫斯)[00:00:00]
In a room so lonely and cheerless[00:00:16]
Sits a woman all alone[00:00:21]
By her a cradle stands empty[00:00:28]
And o'er it she sobs and she moans:[00:00:34]
"My husband he no longer loves me[00:00:40]
His love and our dear baby died[00:00:46]
I'll leave him at home forever[00:00:52]
And out in this old world abide"[00:00:59]
She packed baby's things in a bundle[00:01:05]
While the tears rolled down her cheeks[00:01:11]
"I never no never would leave him[00:01:17]
If ever a kind word he'd speak "[00:01:24]
Just then the door softly[00:01:30]
Was opened[00:01:35]
A man took the bundle away[00:01:36]
He laid the things out on the table[00:01:42]
And softly to her he did say:[00:01:48]
"One little stocking for you dear[00:01:55]
One little blue shoe is for me[00:02:01]
The baby's wrap and its smallest cap[00:02:07]
We'll keep in memory[00:02:13]
One lock of hair is for you dear[00:02:19]
See how the golden curls shine[00:02:25]
We'll keep a smile while[00:02:31]
She sleeps for[00:02:34]
She is the tie that binds"[00:02:39]
