River Of Tears - Madeleine Peyroux (玛黛琳·蓓荷)[00:00:00]
Written by:Madeleine P[00:00:04]
Stop all this talk[00:00:08]
Turn off the telephone[00:00:13]
Open up another bottle[00:00:19]
Send those people home[00:00:23]
Let it get real quiet[00:00:27]
Turn that lamp way down low[00:00:30]
I'm gonna float down[00:00:34]
This river of tears[00:00:38]
I remember how we spoke[00:00:49]
On the days he was dry[00:00:53]
Even now that he's gone[00:00:57]
He can make a woman cry[00:01:01]
But he saw through me deaf[00:01:06]
Dumb and blind[00:01:10]
He knew his way down[00:01:12]
This river of tears[00:01:17]
Dashed hopes and best intentions[00:01:27]
People say[00:01:32]
He could sit and drink the way[00:01:36]
A monk could pray[00:01:41]
So grab that silver flask[00:01:44]
Pour yourself another glass and[00:01:48]
Watch me rage down[00:01:52]
This river of tears[00:01:55]
Turn out the stars now[00:02:02]
Darken every one[00:02:06]
Watch the clouds cover[00:02:11]
That big yellow moon[00:02:14]
Close the blinds mute the sun[00:02:19]
There's nowhere left to run[00:02:28]
Turn out the stars now[00:03:10]
Darken every one[00:03:14]
Watch the clouds cover[00:03:19]
That big yellow moon[00:03:22]
Close the blinds mute the sun[00:03:27]
There's nowhere left to run[00:03:36]
Picked up that old decanter[00:03:44]
That he used to drink from[00:03:48]
Turned on his stereo[00:03:53]
Just to hear it hum[00:03:57]
Daddy I'm gonna wrap myself[00:04:01]
In blankets and listen to you sing[00:04:04]
And I'm gonna float down[00:04:08]
This river of tears[00:04:12]
