After The War (战争之后) - Joe Henry[00:00:00]
A dog-eared mind sniffed my heart[00:00:21]
Like a pocket full of German marks[00:00:26]
Long after the war was through[00:00:35]
Stood me on a rusted rail[00:00:44]
Turned my face and kicked my tail[00:00:48]
Up toward the yonder blue[00:00:56]
Threw a fish up on the bank[00:01:02]
And watched him dance from the air he drank[00:01:06]
And then my hunger knew[00:01:13]
That sparks will fly around my head[00:01:20]
When I stir the coals down in my bed[00:01:26]
Like I was walking back to you[00:01:34]
Time slips out of the leaning fence[00:01:45]
That lost the border ever since[00:01:50]
Our beloved war took to the road[00:01:56]
With caravans and mocking birds[00:02:05]
And painted girls with twisted words[00:02:10]
Whose knees and ankles showed[00:02:17]
Now I sit and watch the failing moon[00:02:24]
The shower-stars and coming soon[00:02:28]
The whole thing will look new[00:02:35]
When blessedly I will forget[00:02:42]
The ways of God and all regret[00:02:48]
Like I was walking back to you[00:02:56]
