Aftertones-Janis Ian

[00:00.000] 作词 : Ian [00:00.19]Sometimes it’s all too much to say aloud [00:07.84]The sound’s a shroud [00:11.45]The meanings crowd [00:15.41]Sometimes the words are painful to the ear [00:22.42]They disappear and nothing’s clear [00:29.79]‘Til all that’s left to me are aftertones [00:36.64]I take them home [00:40.10]We live alone [00:44.02]But I remember chains of melody [00:51.13]It pleases me - this song’s for free [01:02.35]Within the memories of our life gone by [01:09.00]Afraid to die, we learn to lie [01:16.79]And measure out the time in coffee spoons [01:23.52]In fading suns and dying moons [01:31.47]‘Til all that’s left to see are aftertones [01:38.12]And no one knows [01:41.61]Where meaning goes [01:45.73]But i remember chains of melody [01:52.52]It pleases me - this song’s for free [02:03.60]And ooh, I like the sound [02:09.51]Of harmony from time to time [02:16.56]I really do believe [02:23.34]In some kind of tomorrow [02:27.25]When it speaks to me [02:57.95]
