A Gift Of Roses - Jethro Tull[00:00:00]

Written by：Ian Anderson[00:00:14]

I count the hours you count the days[00:00:29]

Together we count the minutes in this passion play[00:00:33]

Walk dusty miles[00:00:39]

And I ride that train[00:00:41]

On a first class ticket[00:00:43]

Just to be with you again[00:00:45]

Picking up tired feet[00:00:49]

Back from a far horizon[00:00:52]

Cleaned up and brushed down[00:00:54]

Dressed to look the part[00:00:57]

Fresh from God's garden[00:00:59]

I bring a gift of roses[00:01:02]

To stand in sweet spring water[00:01:04]

And press them to your heart[00:01:07]

Like the Kipling cat I walk alone[00:01:10]

Never inviting trouble never casting the stone[00:01:14]

But this badge of honor is of tarnished tin[00:01:20]

Light your guiding beacon to bring this fisher in[00:01:24]

Picking up tired feet[00:01:30]

Back from a far horizon[00:01:33]

Cleaned up and brushed down[00:01:35]

Dressed to look the part[00:01:38]

Fresh from God's garden[00:01:40]

I bring a gift of roses[00:01:43]

To stand in sweet spring water[00:01:45]

And press them to your heart[00:01:48]

I count the hours you count the days[00:02:20]

Together we count the minutes in this passion play[00:02:24]

Walk dusty miles[00:02:30]

And I ride that train[00:02:33]

On a first class ticket[00:02:34]

Just to be with you again[00:02:37]

Picking up tired feet[00:02:40]

Back from a far horizon[00:02:43]

Cleaned up and brushed down[00:02:45]

Dressed to look the part[00:02:48]

Fresh from God's garden[00:02:51]

I bring a gift of roses[00:02:53]

To stand in sweet spring water[00:02:55]

And press them to your heart[00:02:58]

Picking up tired feet[00:03:00]

Back from a far horizon[00:03:03]

Cleaned up and brushed down[00:03:05]

Dressed to look the part[00:03:08]

Fresh from God's garden[00:03:10]

I bring a gift of roses[00:03:13]

To stand in sweet spring water[00:03:15]

And press them to your heart[00:03:18]

This sparkling wine is all but empty[00:06:01]

Too late for trains and no taxis[00:06:06]

I know the feeling[00:06:11]

Seems all too contrived[00:06:14]

There was no master plan but the fact is[00:06:16]

You must stay with me[00:06:21]

And learn the secret language of birds[00:06:23]

A tentative dawn about to be breaking[00:06:36]

On a Rousseau garden with monkeys in hiding[00:06:41]

The truth of the matter yet to be spoken[00:06:46]

In words on which everything everything's riding[00:06:51]

Now stay with me[00:06:56]

And learn the secret language of birds[00:06:58]

Now stay with me[00:07:06]

And learn the secret language of birds[00:07:08]

Circled by swallows[00:07:26]

In a world for the weary[00:07:30]

Courted by warblers[00:07:35]

Wicked and eloquent trilling[00:07:40]

Lie in the stillness[00:08:02]

Window cracked open[00:08:04]

Extended moments hours for the taking[00:08:07]

Careless hair on the pillow[00:08:11]

A bold brush stroke[00:08:14]

Painted verse with a chorus[00:08:17]

The chorus in waiting[00:08:19]

Stay with me[00:08:22]

And learn the secret language of birds[00:08:24]

Yeah stay with me[00:08:31]

And learn the secret language of birds[00:08:34]

Stay with me[00:08:51]

Learn the secret language of birds[00:08:54]

Now stay with me[00:09:01]

And learn the secret language of birds[00:09:04]

Yeah stay with me[00:09:12]

Learn the secret language of birds[00:09:15]
