时长: 05:03
I took you to the place where I was born[00:00:01]
You said that it was just as I'd described[00:00:08]
We moved in soon after the days turned warm[00:00:18]
Just in time to see the spring arrive[00:00:26]
I watched you through the windows in our room[00:00:35]
Your hair grew long under the arbor shade[00:01:01]
Our love was new[00:01:11]
But the hour grew late too soon[00:01:13]
How suddenly that honeyed light would fade[00:01:18]
You had the city in you[00:01:28]
Always in the way you moved were the skyline and the avenues[00:01:34]
You had the city in you[00:01:43]
I knew[00:01:49]
Always in the way you moved were the skyline and the avenues[00:01:49]
When the autumn came[00:02:00]
The leaves turned one by one[00:02:04]
'Til the barren trees were left to stand alone[00:02:08]
You still felt the same[00:02:18]
You said[00:02:20]
As since we had begun[00:02:21]
But a longing crept into the eyes I'd known[00:02:26]
I watched you pack[00:02:46]
I was rooted to the spot[00:02:56]
We fell asleep a while beneath the oak[00:03:01]
It's our job to live as well as we can in the time[00:03:10]
We've got was written in the note I found when I woke[00:03:15]
You had the city in you[00:03:28]
Always in the way you moved were the skyline and the avenues[00:03:34]
You had the city in you[00:03:43]
I knew[00:03:46]
So before the weary ache wore through[00:03:48]
You slipped back into the avenues[00:03:51]
You had the city in you[00:04:29]
It's our job to live as well as we can in the time we've got[00:04:32]
Always in the way you moved were the skyline and the avenues[00:04:35]
You had the city in you[00:04:44]
I knew[00:04:46]
It's our job to live as well as we can in the time we've got[00:04:47]
So before the weary ache wore through[00:04:50]
You slipped back into the avenues[00:04:52]
