Ballad Of The Runaway Horse - Jennifer Warnes (珍尼弗·温拿斯)/Rob Wasserman[00:00:00]

Written by：Leonard Cohen/Elliot Mazer[00:00:00]

Say a prayer for the cowgirl her horse ran away[00:00:00]

She'll walk 'til she finds him her darlin' her stray[00:00:06]

But the river's in flood and the roads are awash[00:00:12]

And the bridges break up in the panic of loss[00:00:17]

And there's nothin' to follow nowhere to go[00:00:28]

He's gone like the summer gone like the snow[00:00:34]

And the crickets are breaking her heart with their song[00:00:39]

As the day caves in and the night is all wrong[00:00:45]

Did she dream was it he who went galloping past[00:00:56]

And bent down the fern broke open the grass[00:01:02]

And printed the mud with the well hammered shoes[00:01:08]

That she nailed to his speed in the dreams of her youth[00:01:13]

And although he goes grazing a minute away[00:01:24]

She tracks him all night she tracks him all day[00:01:30]

Blind to his presence except to compare[00:01:35]

Her injury here with his punishment there[00:01:41]

Then at home on a branch on a high stream[00:01:51]

A songbird sings out so suddenly[00:01:58]

And the sun is warm and the soft winds ride[00:02:03]

On a willow tree[00:02:09]

By the riverside[00:02:13]

Ah the world is sweet and world is wide[00:02:20]

And he's there where the light and the darkness divide[00:02:25]

And the steam's comin' off him he's huge and he's shy[00:02:31]

And he steps on the moon when he paws at the sky[00:02:37]

And he comes to her hand but he's nor really tame[00:02:48]

He longs to be lost she longs for the same[00:02:53]

And he'll bolt and he'll plunge thru' the first open pass[00:02:59]

To roll and to feed in the sweet mountain grass[00:03:05]

Or he'll make a break for the high plateau[00:03:15]

Where there's nothing above or nothing below[00:03:21]

It's time for their burden the whip and the spur[00:03:27]

Will she ride with him or will he ride with her[00:03:33]

So she binds herself to her galloping steed[00:03:43]

And he binds himself to the woman in need[00:03:49]

And there is no space just left and right[00:03:55]

And there is no time but there is day and night[00:04:00]

Then she leans on his neck and whispers low[00:04:11]

Whither thou goest I will go[00:04:18]

And they turn as one and they head for the plain[00:04:22]

No need for the whip oh no need for the rain[00:04:28]

Now the clasp of this union who fastens it tight[00:04:40]

Who snaps it asunder the very next night[00:04:45]

Some say it's him some say it's her[00:04:51]

Some say love's like smoke beyond all repair[00:04:56]

So my darlin' my darlin' just let it go by[00:05:07]

That old silhouette on the great western sky[00:05:13]

And I'll pick out a tune and they'll move right along[00:05:18]

And they're gone like smoke and they're gone like this song[00:05:24]

Ohh lalala ohh la rararaha rarirah[00:05:35]

Ohhohhooo rarara tararirara ah[00:05:56]

Tararororo ohhooooo ohhoohoo[00:06:13]

Tararirara tarararara[00:06:30]
