Wood (In the Style of Dan Seals) (Performance Track with Demonstration Vocals) - Done Again (又一次乐队)[00:00:00]
His old hands were brown[00:00:12]
From the varnish and the stain[00:00:15]
And I had come to talk[00:00:18]
In my youth and in my pain[00:00:21]
I told him that I was not[00:00:25]
The man I want to be[00:00:28]
I waited to see what he would say[00:00:31]
But he just kept on working[00:00:37]
As if I wasn't there[00:00:40]
The sweat on his face[00:00:43]
And dust in his hair[00:00:46]
He paused for a moment[00:00:49]
When I'd been there for a while[00:00:52]
He wiped his brow[00:00:55]
I thought I saw him smile[00:00:57]
He just said "Wood [00:01:01]
From the earth beneath our feet[00:01:04]
There grows a tree[00:01:07]
And we can take it shape it [00:01:10]
To what's it's meant to be[00:01:14]
The stronger the fiber [00:01:17]
The better for the good[00:01:20]
Son I believe that men are just like wood "[00:01:23]
I handed him a timber[00:01:36]
And he laid it on the bench[00:01:38]
I watched the love and care he took[00:01:42]
To measure every inch[00:01:45]
The work it got harder[00:01:48]
When he cut across the grain[00:01:50]
But he just put more shoulder to the plane[00:01:54]
I sat there beside him[00:02:00]
As he carved out every line[00:02:03]
He made a thing of beauty[00:02:06]
From a rough 'ol piece of pine[00:02:09]
He seem to have the vision[00:02:13]
Of what the end would be[00:02:16]
I felt as if some pieces[00:02:19]
Had been taken out of me[00:02:22]
He just said "Wood [00:02:25]
From the earth beneath our feet[00:02:28]
There grows a tree[00:02:30]
And we can take it shape it [00:02:34]
To what's it's meant to be[00:02:38]
The stronger the fiber [00:02:41]
The better for the good[00:02:44]
Son I believe that men are just like wood "[00:02:47]
I left a little taller[00:02:56]
Wiser and free[00:02:59]
I learned the use of tools[00:03:02]
For the carpenter in me[00:03:05]
I don't have all the answers[00:03:08]
But one thing I have found[00:03:12]
We are the choices that we make[00:03:15]
When the chips are down [00:03:18]
He said "The stronger the fiber [00:03:38]
The better for the good[00:03:42]
Son I believe that men are just like wood "[00:03:45]
Just like wood[00:03:57]
