歌词
歌曲名 The Island
歌手名 Dan Ar Braz
作曲:Paul Brady
They say the skies of Lebanon are burning
Those mighty cedars bleeding in the heat
They're showing pictures on the television
Women and children dying in the streets
And we're still at it in our own place
Still trying to reach the future through the past
Still trying to carve tomorrow from a tombstone
But hey don't listen to me
This wasn't meant to be no sad song
W've her to much of that before
Right now I only want to be here with you
Till the morning due comes falling
I want to take you to the Island
And trace your footprints in the sand
And in the evening when there's no one around
We'll to the sound of the ocean
They're raising banners over by the markets
White washing slogans on the shipyard walls
Witch doctors praying for a mighty showdown
No way are holy flag is gonna fall
Up here we sacrifice our children
To feed the worn out dreams of yesterday
And teach them dying will lead us into glory
But hey don't listen to me
This wasn't meant to be no sad song
We've had too much of that before
Right now I only want to be here with you
Till the morning dew comes falling
I want to take you to the Island
And trace your footprints in the sand
And in the evening when the sun goes down
We'll to the sound of the ocean
Now I know us plain folk don't see all the story
And all this peace and love's just copping out
And a guess this young boys dying in the ditches
Is just what being free is all about
And how this twisted wreckage down on main street
Will bring us all together in the end
And we go marching down the road to freedom
Freedom
Freedom
