Long Way Back Home (漫漫归程) - Gordon Lightfoot[00:00:00]
Written by:Gordon Lightfoot[00:00:00]
From the railhead to the boatyard[00:00:08]
From the factory to the farm[00:00:12]
From the mines to the millhouse[00:00:16]
I've weathered the storm[00:00:19]
From the bar room to the bedpost[00:00:23]
I've wasted my days[00:00:27]
All I have is my drink[00:00:30]
And the time left to think[00:00:32]
While time slips away[00:00:34]
Just look at my face[00:00:38]
When you tell me goodbye[00:00:41]
You'll see what I'm after[00:00:45]
By the look in my eye[00:00:48]
Just walk away[00:00:52]
And leave me alone[00:00:56]
It's a long way back home[00:01:00]
Now in case you should ask me[00:01:03]
What it is that I've done[00:01:07]
I say I'm a soldier[00:01:11]
Who once had a son[00:01:14]
But my son doesn't know me[00:01:18]
That's his right to choose[00:01:22]
Oh say can you see[00:01:25]
My best friend is me[00:01:27]
I'm a friend I can use[00:01:29]
Just look at my face[00:01:33]
When you tell me goodbye[00:01:37]
You'll see what I'm after[00:01:40]
By the look in my eye[00:01:44]
Just walk away[00:01:48]
And leave me alone[00:01:51]
It's a long way back home[00:01:55]
Now the pages have faded[00:01:59]
The story grows cold[00:02:02]
And the plot falls to ashes[00:02:06]
Like the ruins of old[00:02:10]
Those rats in my rafters[00:02:13]
They're after my shoes[00:02:17]
And anything else[00:02:21]
They can find on the shelf[00:02:23]
I've said they could use[00:02:25]
Just look at my face[00:02:28]
When you tell me goodbye[00:02:32]
You'll see what I'm after[00:02:36]
By the look in my eye[00:02:39]
Just walk away[00:02:43]
And leave me alone[00:02:47]
It's a long way back home[00:02:51]
It's a long way back home[00:02:54]
