Memorial Day (纪念日) (LP版) - Carly Simon (卡莉·西蒙)[00:00:00]
It should have been so soft this morning as we left[00:00:15]
But the valley was infected[00:00:29]
By a different kind of beauty[00:00:32]
And the indians they knew it was a devil's sanctuary[00:00:36]
Out of this unholy dawn a car[00:01:04]
Came stirring up the sand[00:01:09]
And a woman from a passion play[00:01:12]
Held up the limousine that brought me all this way today[00:01:16]
And I didn't need to turn around[00:01:24]
So strong was the message[00:01:27]
And the man who planned her life[00:01:32]
Commanded all that followed[00:01:35]
Well they bellowed and they hollered[00:01:40]
And they threw each other down down in this valley[00:01:45]
This cruel and lovely valley[00:01:55]
Oh it should have been an alley[00:01:59]
In some low down part of town[00:02:04]
As lights came up there's no sun[00:02:24]
And brandy splattered all over the ground[00:02:28]
As this woman with her head held high[00:02:34]
Yelled love and why[00:02:38]
Oh why you're killing me oh follow me[00:02:41]
As I watched safe and clean[00:02:49]
From the frosted windows of limousine[00:02:52]
Well they bellowed and they hollered[00:03:14]
And they threw each other down[00:03:19]
Down in this valley this cruel and lovely valley[00:03:24]
Oh it sould have been an alley[00:03:33]
In some low down part of town[00:03:39]
Before he'd been so funny imagining the best[00:04:09]
That he'd escaper recrimination[00:04:19]
For abandoning the nest[00:04:25]
He'd been joking and stoned[00:04:30]
While he was entertaining me[00:04:32]
But then turned and was stunned[00:04:38]
By her panic and her misery[00:04:40]
I was in the get away car[00:04:54]
Giving him a chance to get away[00:04:57]
Get away get away get away get away get away[00:04:58]
And how the valley smoked[00:05:20]
As he crossed route twenty five[00:05:23]
With his cymbals and his shattered[00:05:29]
Crown leaving all alone[00:05:32]
His eyes fixed on the ground[00:05:35]
And he didn't even turn around[00:05:40]
So strong was the message[00:05:43]
And he fell into the shallow sky[00:05:48]
And was swallowed[00:05:51]
Well they bellowed and they hollered[00:05:56]
And they threw each other down[00:06:00]
Down in this valley this cruel and lovely valley[00:06:05]
Well it should have been an alley[00:06:14]
In some low down part of town[00:06:19]
