Photograph
作词:William Berry, Peter Buck, Natalie Merchant, Mike Mills, Michael Stipe
I found this photograph Underneath the picture glass Tender face of black and white Beautiful, a haunting sight
Looked into an angels smile Captivated all the while From the hair and clothes she wore I'd place her in between the wars
Was she willing when she sat? Posed the pretty photograph Save her flowering and fair Days to come, days to share A big smile for the camera
How did she know? The moment could be lost forever Forever more
I found this photograph Stashed between the old joist walls In a place where time is lost Lost behind, where all things fall
Broken books and calendars Letters script in careful hand 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 Music too, a standard tune by Some forgotten big brass band
From the threshold what's to see Of our brave new century? The television's just a dream Radio, silver screen Big smile for the camera
How did she know? The moment could be lost forever Forever more
Was her childhood filled with rhymes Stolen hooks, impassioned crimes? Was she innocent or blind To the cruelty of her time?
Was she fearful in her day Was she hopeful, did she pray? Were there skeletons inside Family secrets, sworn to hide?
Did she feel the beat that stirs The fall from grace of wayward girls? Was she tempted to pretend The love and laughter, until the end?
