Apology (Live) - Gordon Lightfoot[00:00:00]

Written by：Gordon Lightfoot[00:00:01]

I remember everything[00:00:10]

I've learned about survival[00:00:14]

I've walked with fools and kings[00:00:19]

And I've even read the bible[00:00:23]

There I came upon some lines[00:00:29]

Givin' me direction[00:00:33]

Gather not your gold on earth[00:00:38]

Your kingdom is in heaven[00:00:41]

But I chose to live instead[00:00:47]

Inside the shell they gave me[00:00:51]

'Til in spite of everything[00:00:56]

Good fortune came to find me[00:01:00]

I tried my best to run away[00:01:04]

But I can not avoid the feelin'[00:01:07]

Soon I was reelin' on my feet[00:01:09]

I made a grab at anything[00:01:13]

The earth was gone and I was on[00:01:16]

A vicious circle then[00:01:18]

After I'd gone and let myself surrender[00:01:23]

I didn't want to die at all[00:01:31]

I thought I'd live forever[00:01:35]

Then she gave me everything[00:01:40]

A king could never borrow[00:01:44]

But I twisted all her gifts[00:01:50]

Her wisdom was my sorrow[00:01:53]

So I left her cryin'[00:01:59]

And roamed across the river[00:02:03]

The angels offered me their hands[00:02:08]

But I could not forget her[00:02:12]

So I came to where she was[00:02:17]

Will by river road and reason[00:02:21]

I slept beneath her window[00:02:27]

In the moonlight summer season[00:02:30]

But I could not go inside[00:02:35]

I heard the sound of laughter[00:02:37]

And the rustle of her hair upon his skin[00:02:39]

I made a grab at anything[00:02:44]

The earth was gone and I was on[00:02:46]

A vicious circle then[00:02:49]

After I'd gone to cry down my sorrow[00:02:54]

I didn't want to live no more[00:03:02]

Nor face the bright tomorrow[00:03:06]

Then I remembered everything[00:03:11]

I've learned about survival[00:03:15]

Havin' walked with fools and kings[00:03:21]

I've even read the bible[00:03:24]

I remember all those lines[00:03:29]

Givin' me direction[00:03:34]

Gather not your gold on earth[00:03:39]

It will not pass inspection[00:03:42]

And still I think when I'm alone[00:03:48]

Away from all night splendor[00:03:52]

If gold could buy one night with her[00:03:57]

I wish I had some to send her[00:04:01]
