Albatross - Judy Collins (朱蒂·柯林斯)[00:00:00]
The lady comes to the gate[00:00:15]
Dressed in lavender and leather[00:00:20]
Looking North to the sea[00:00:23]
She finds the weather fine[00:00:27]
She hears the steeple bells ringing through the orchard[00:00:31]
All the way from town[00:00:35]
She watches seagulls fly[00:00:38]
Silver on the ocean stitching through the waves[00:00:41]
The edges of the sky[00:00:44]
Many people wander up the hills[00:00:54]
From all around you[00:00:58]
Making up your memories[00:01:01]
And thinking they have found you[00:01:02]
They cover you with veils of wonder[00:01:06]
As if you were a bride[00:01:09]
Young men holding violets are curious[00:01:12]
To know if you have cried[00:01:15]
And tell you why[00:01:17]
And ask you why[00:01:18]
Any way your answer[00:01:19]
Lace around the collars of the blouses of the ladies[00:01:22]
Flowers from a Spanish friend of the family[00:01:28]
The embroidery of your life holds you in[00:01:33]
And keeps you out but you survive[00:01:35]
Imprisoned in your bones[00:01:37]
Behind the isinglass windows of your eyes[00:01:40]
And in the night[00:01:45]
The iron wheels rolling through the rain[00:01:46]
Down the hills through the long grass to the sea[00:01:52]
And in the dark[00:01:59]
The hard bells ringing with pain[00:02:00]
Come away alone[00:02:06]
Even now by the gate[00:02:22]
With your long hair blowing[00:02:30]
And the colors of the day[00:02:33]
That lie along your arms[00:02:36]
You must barter your life[00:02:40]
To make sure you are living[00:02:43]
And the crowd that has come[00:02:46]
You give them the colors[00:02:50]
And the bells and wind and the dream[00:02:53]
Will there never be a prince[00:02:59]
Who rides along the sea and the mountains[00:03:03]
Scattering the sand and foam into amethyst fountains[00:03:07]
Riding up the hills from the beach[00:03:12]
In the long summer grass[00:03:15]
Holding the sun in his hands[00:03:18]
And shattering the isinglass[00:03:19]
Day and night and day again[00:03:23]
And people come and go away forever[00:03:25]
While the shining summer sea dances[00:03:30]
In the glass of your mirror[00:03:32]
While you search the waves for love[00:03:36]
And your visions for a sign[00:03:38]
The knot of tears around your throat[00:03:41]
Is crystallizing into your design[00:03:43]
And in the night[00:03:48]
The iron wheels rolling through the rain[00:03:49]
Down the hills through the long grass to the sea[00:03:55]
And in the dark[00:04:02]
The hard bells ringing with pain[00:04:03]
Come away alone[00:04:09]
Come away alone with me[00:04:20]
