Gun - Jim Reeves (吉姆·里夫斯)[00:00:00]
This is the story of love[00:00:02]
That came undone[00:00:08]
This is the story of two[00:00:11]
Men and a gun of two[00:00:16]
Men and a gun [00:00:21]
A man that I'd never[00:00:28]
Met stole my wife and son[00:00:29]
But that's been nearly[00:00:33]
Three years now[00:00:34]
And it's over with and done[00:00:35]
At first I'd stare out into[00:00:37]
Space while hate[00:00:38]
Consumed my soul[00:00:40]
Hate was the creed by[00:00:41]
Which I lived and revenge[00:00:43]
My only goal [00:00:45]
But the road to happiness[00:00:48]
Isn't paved with hate[00:00:49]
I'm glad I learned how to[00:00:51]
Forgive before it was too late[00:00:53]
Now here's the way the[00:00:56]
Other man paid for what he'd done[00:00:57]
I heard it from the man's own[00:01:00]
Lips who took my wife and son [00:01:01]
I didn't really know this man[00:01:05]
But I'd seen him round[00:01:06]
He's a new guard at the[00:01:09]
Factory where I work west of town[00:01:10]
This fellow swung into step[00:01:13]
With me and said I've got to talk[00:01:14]
I listened spellbound at his[00:01:17]
Words as we stood on the walk [00:01:19]
You the guard said hoarsely[00:01:22]
Are a kind man I surmise[00:01:23]
As he stood there with his[00:01:24]
Handkerchief wiping in his eyes[00:01:25]
Three years ago I wronged[00:01:28]
A man I stole his wife and son[00:01:31]
I didn't realize then the[00:01:33]
Terrible thing that I had done [00:01:34]
This thing gets hold of me at[00:01:38]
Night and I can't sleep or rest[00:01:40]
Forgive me sir but telling it[00:01:44]
Seems to get it off my chest[00:01:46]
When my past looms up like[00:01:49]
This it kinda helps me to unload[00:01:51]
I'm one man sir who knows for[00:01:54]
Sure that you reap just what you sow [00:01:56]
I sure appreciate your listening[00:02:00]
It helps me a lot[00:02:01]
You know to have that man's[00:02:04]
Forgiveness I'd give[00:02:05]
Everything I've got[00:02:06]
Well I feel much better[00:02:09]
Now I I didn't get your name[00:02:10]
More why that was my[00:02:14]
Wife's name before we wed[00:02:16]
It's odd your name's the same [00:02:19]
You know I'd kill a man who'd[00:02:22]
Do to me the thing that I've done[00:02:24]
And when the truth got[00:02:26]
Through to him he handed[00:02:27]
Me his gun[00:02:29]
As I gave the weapon back[00:02:32]
I said what's done is done[00:02:33]
All I ask is just be kind to[00:02:37]
Jenny and my son[00:02:40]
