A Politician’s Silence

A Politician's Silence - Belle and Sebastian (贝尔与塞贝斯蒂安)[00:00:00]

The cherry tree is broken[00:00:14]

The maple leaf is brown[00:00:17]

The wind is in the north east[00:00:20]

It's blowing through the town[00:00:23]

Morning is the mother[00:00:27]

She pulls you out of bed[00:00:29]

Noon is like the sister[00:00:32]

No hiding from the threat[00:00:35]

I want you for a lover[00:00:39]

I want you in the dusk[00:00:42]

Your thoughts are deep unspoken[00:00:45]

Buried in your past[00:00:48]

The cherry tree is broken[00:00:51]

The maple is a lie[00:00:54]

The north east wind is building[00:00:57]

The people go inside[00:01:00]

I want to stay in this place[00:01:03]

Where thoughts are warm and bright[00:01:06]

I want to stay by your side[00:01:10]

And listen to your words[00:01:13]

The chaos is unbroken[00:01:16]

All the news is grim[00:01:19]

Feeds into the conscience[00:01:22]

Chase away the dream[00:01:25]

The cherry tree is broken[00:01:28]

The maple has blown down[00:01:31]

The water it is rising[00:01:34]

The power has gone out[00:01:37]

I want to find some respite[00:01:41]

From ignorance and lies[00:01:44]

I run from passing strangers[00:01:47]

I run from evil eyes[00:01:50]

I need to take some shelter[00:01:53]

I look for you in storms[00:01:56]

I know you have a foxhole[00:01:59]

I know it's dark and warm[00:02:02]

I see you in the kitchen[00:02:05]

I see you by the fire[00:02:08]

Absorbing life's great stories[00:02:12]

Drinking from your eyes[00:02:15]

Drinking wine in goblets[00:02:18]

Knees tucked to the chin[00:02:21]

Sitting in a straw chair[00:02:24]

Hair like golden sun[00:02:27]

Love you in the firelight[00:02:30]

Love you in the dark[00:02:33]

Think one day I'll tell you[00:02:36]

That accidents can spark[00:02:39]

A trail of life's destruction[00:02:43]

A fissure of intent[00:02:46]

A comfort blanket hanging[00:02:49]

For every crisis spent[00:02:52]

Think one day I'll tell you[00:02:55]

I'll catch you from behind[00:02:58]

Cover eyes to trick you[00:03:01]

Guessing will decide[00:03:04]

The ash is like my brother[00:03:45]

He took the lazy path[00:03:48]

To summer and the good life[00:03:51]

The last leaf in the park[00:03:54]

A wise old head on shoulders[00:03:57]

On boards of adamant[00:04:00]

He watched us by the river[00:04:03]

He watched us in the dusk[00:04:06]

Ribbons fell from your hair[00:04:09]

They came down from the war[00:04:12]

The drunks fell out of houses[00:04:15]

The food of love would flow[00:04:18]

And just then for the one day[00:04:22]

Beneath the tree of joy[00:04:25]

We were equal in our beauty[00:04:28]

To the sunset girls and boys[00:04:31]

You're too cool to rush in[00:04:34]

Which lover could it be[00:04:37]

A politician's silence[00:04:40]

Will be the death of me[00:04:43]
