1917 (LP版) - Linda Ronstadt (琳达·朗丝黛)[00:00:00]

The strange young man who comes to me[00:00:07]

A soldier on a three day spree[00:00:13]

He needs one night's cheap ecstasy[00:00:19]

And a woman's arms to hide him[00:00:26]

He greets me with a courtly bow[00:00:31]

And hides his pain by acting proud[00:00:38]

He drinks too much and he laughs too loud[00:00:44]

How can I deny him[00:00:51]

Let us dance beneath the moon[00:00:56]

I'll sing to you Claire de lune[00:01:02]

The morning always comes too soon[00:01:08]

But tonight the war is over[00:01:15]

He speaks to me in schoolboy French[00:01:24]

Of a soldiers life inside a trench[00:01:30]

Of the look of death and the ghastly stench[00:01:36]

I do my best to please him[00:01:43]

He puts two roses in a vase[00:01:48]

Two roses sadly out of place[00:01:54]

Like the gallant smile on his haggard face[00:02:00]

Playfully I tease him[00:02:07]

Hold me Neath the Paris skies[00:02:12]

Let's not talk of how or why[00:02:18]

Tomorrow's soon enough to die[00:02:24]

But tonight the war is over[00:02:31]

We make love too hard too fast[00:02:40]

He falls asleep his face a mask[00:02:46]

He wakes with the shakes and he drinks from his flask[00:02:52]

I put my arms around him[00:02:59]

They die in the trenches and they die in the air[00:03:04]

In Belgium and France the dead are everywhere[00:03:10]

They die so fast there's no time to prepare[00:03:16]

A decent grave to surround them[00:03:22]

Old world glory old world fame[00:03:28]

The old worlds gone gone up in flames[00:03:34]

Nothing will ever be the same[00:03:39]

And nothing lasts forever[00:03:46]

Oh I'd pray for him but I've forgotten how[00:03:54]

And there's nothing nothing that can save him now[00:04:00]

There's always another with the same funny bow[00:04:06]

And who am I to deny them[00:04:13]

Lux aeterna luce at e is[00:04:19]

Domine cum sanctic tu is in aeternum[00:04:23]

Qui a pius es[00:04:28]

Requiem aeternaum dona e is domine[00:04:31]

Qui a pius es[00:04:40]

Requiem aeternaum dona e is domine[00:04:43]

Qui a pius es[00:04:49]

Et lux perpetua luce at e is cum sancris tu is in[00:04:51]

Aeternum qui api us es[00:04:56]

Domine[00:04:59]

Tonight the war is over[00:05:01]
