歌曲名 My Dear Country

歌手名 Norah Jones

作曲：Norah Jones

'Twas halloween and the ghosts were out

And everywhere they'd go they shout

And though I covered my eyes I knew

They'd go away

But fear's the only thing I saw

And three days later 'twas clear to all

That nothing is as scary as election day

But the day after is darker

And darker and darker it goes

Who knows maybe the plans will change

Who knows maybe he's not deranged

The news men know what they know

But they

Know even less than what they say

And I don't know who I can trust

For they come what may

'Cause we believed in our candidate

But even more it's the one we hate

I needed someone I could shake

On election day

But the day after is darker

And deeper and deeper we go

Who knows maybe it's all a dream

Who knows if I'll wake up and scream

I love the things that you've given me

I cherish you my dear country

But sometimes I don't understand

The way we play

I love the things that you've given me

And most of all that I am free

To have a song that I can sing

On election day
