My Father (我的父亲) - Nina Simone (妮娜·西蒙)[00:00:00]

My father always promised me[00:00:34]

That we would live in France[00:00:41]

We'd go boating on the seine[00:00:49]

And I would learn to dance[00:00:57]

We lived in Ohio then[00:01:05]

He worked in the mines[00:01:15]

On his dreams like boats we knew[00:01:21]

We would sail in time in time[00:01:26]

My sisters are went away[00:01:53]

To Denver and Cheyenne[00:02:02]

Marrying their grownup dreams[00:02:10]

The lilacs and the man[00:02:18]

I stayed behind the youngest still[00:02:26]

And I danced alone[00:02:35]

Hoping of my fathers dreams[00:02:43]

Someday take me home take me home[00:02:47]

And I live in Paris now[00:03:19]

My children dance and sing[00:03:28]

Words of a miners tongue[00:03:39]

Language they've never sing[00:03:44]

I sail my memories of home[00:03:52]

Like boats across the Seine[00:03:59]

And watch my fathers eyes watch the setting sun[00:04:08]

It sets in my fathers eyes again[00:04:15]
