Ideas Are Like Stars

Ideas Are Like Stars - Mary Chapin Carpenter (玛丽翠萍·卡本特)[00:00:00]

Today Joseph is sitting alone[00:00:05]

With occasional nods to the waitress[00:00:09]

She tops off his cup while she's snapping her gum[00:00:14]

Making her rounds on the lunch shift[00:00:20]

Counting out coins he leaves them arranged[00:00:24]

In neat lines and circles and arcs[00:00:30]

She just stares at the tip that spells out her name[00:00:34]

And ideas are like stars[00:00:40]

And yesterday pedaling down 4th Avenue[00:00:54]

Between the stalls and the bookshops[00:01:00]

The sepia tones of a lost afternoon[00:01:04]

Cradled a curio storefront[00:01:10]

And inside the air was thick with the past[00:01:14]

As the dust settled onto his heart[00:01:19]

And here for a moment is every place in the world[00:01:24]

And ideas are like stars[00:01:30]

They fall from the sky they run round your head[00:01:34]

They litter your sleep as they beckon[00:01:40]

They'd teach you to fly without wires or thread[00:01:44]

They promise if only you'd let them[00:01:50]

For the language of longing never had words[00:01:54]

So how did you speak from your heart[00:01:59]

Yet here is a box that swears it has heard[00:02:04]

That ideas are like stars[00:02:10]

Tonight Joseph stood out in the yard[00:02:51]

As Debussy played from the kitchen[00:02:56]

Celestial companions 'til mornings first lark[00:03:00]

Shone overhead and he listened[00:03:06]

And who was that shadow there by the gate [00:03:10]

Who was that there standing guard [00:03:16]

It was only loneliness and loneliness waits[00:03:21]

And ideas are like stars ideas are like stars[00:03:26]
