Listening To Old Voices - John Hiatt (约翰·亥特)[00:00:00]
They have come to haunt the children[00:00:23]
They have come to walk the wind[00:00:25]
I can hear them as they rustle through the trees[00:00:28]
Looking for the love that killed them[00:00:33]
So that they might live again[00:00:36]
It's a simple prayer that brings me to my knees[00:00:39]
With drums and bells and rattles[00:00:56]
They have caught us in our time[00:00:58]
To watch the eagle rise up from the fire[00:01:01]
Now is it true we are possessed[00:01:06]
By all the ones we leave behind[00:01:09]
Or is it by their lives we are inspired[00:01:12]
It's a new light new day[00:01:17]
Listening for the meaning learning how to say[00:01:23]
It's a new place but you've always been here[00:01:28]
You're just listening to old voices with a new ear[00:01:33]
It's the livin' and the dyin' well it scares the young ones so[00:01:45]
They can hardly catch their breath before too long[00:01:50]
They see the tears we're crying and they watch that river flow[00:01:56]
And they follow on the banks until it's gone[00:02:01]
I surrender to the mountains I surrender to the sea[00:02:17]
I surrender to the one who calls my name[00:02:23]
I surrender to my lover now and to my enemy[00:02:28]
I surrender to the face that holds no shame[00:02:34]
It's a new light new day[00:02:39]
Listening for the meaning learning how to say[00:02:45]
It's a new place but you've always been here[00:02:50]
You're just listening to old voices with a new ear[00:02:55]
There's a spider at my window and she spins a web of truth[00:03:25]
More beautiful than all these memories[00:03:31]
And she surely is god's artist as she's caught the morning dew[00:03:36]
It's a simple prayer that brings me to my knees[00:03:42]
It's a new light new day[00:03:53]
Listening for the meaning learning how to say[00:03:58]
It's a new place but you've always been here[00:04:04]
You're just listening to old voices with a new ear[00:04:09]
It's a new light new day[00:04:15]
Listening for the meaning learning how to say[00:04:20]
It's a new place but we've always been here[00:04:25]
We're just listening to old voices with a new ear[00:04:30]
