[00:00.00] 作词 : Joakim Brodén/Pär Sundström
[00:01.00] 作曲 : Joakim Brodén
[00:51.15]Hear the sound of a machinegun
[00:54.06]Hear it echo in the night
[00:57.12]Mortals firing rains the scene
[01:00.00]Scars the fields
[01:01.29]That once were green
[01:02.64]It’s a stalemate at the frontline
[01:05.37]Where the soldiers rest in mud
[01:08.55]Roads and houses
[01:10.11]All is gone
[01:11.46]There is no glory to be won
[01:14.10]Know that many men will suffer
[01:16.83]Know that many men will die
[01:20.07]Half a million lives at stake
[01:22.98]At the fields of Passchendaele
[01:25.32]And as the night falls the general calls
[01:28.89]And the battle carries on and on
[01:32.22]What is the purpose of it all?
[01:37.11]What’s the price of a mile?
[01:40.02]Thousands of feet march to the beat
[01:42.39]It’s an army on the march
[01:46.02]Long way from home
[01:48.63]Paying the price in young men’s lives
[01:51.51]Thousands of feet march to the beat
[01:54.03]It’s an army in despair
[01:57.45]Knee-deep in mud
[01:59.97]Stuck in a trench with no way out
[02:08.58]Thousands of machineguns
[02:11.07]Kept on firing through the night
[02:14.19]Mortars blazed and wrecked the scene
[02:17.13]Gone is the fields that once were green
[02:19.56]Still a deadlock at the frontline
[02:22.47]Where the soldiers die in mud
[02:25.53]Roads and houses since long gone
[02:28.47]Still no glory has been won
[02:31.02]Know that many men has suffered
[02:33.87]Know that many men has died
[02:36.99]Six miles of ground has been won
[02:39.96]Half a million men are gone
[02:42.36]And as the men crawled the general called
[02:45.45]And the killing carried on and on
[02:49.32]What’s the purpose of it all?
[02:54.21]What’s the price of a mile?
[02:57.06]Thousands of feet march to the beat
[02:59.61]It’s an army on the march
[03:03.03]Long way from home
[03:05.64]Paying the price in young men’s lives
[03:08.49]Thousands of feet march to the beat
[03:11.01]It’s an army in despair
[03:14.46]Knee-deep in mud
[03:16.98]Stuck in a trench with no way out
[03:31.53]Young men are dying
[03:34.50]They pay the price
[03:37.47]Oh how they suffer
[03:40.26]So tell me what’s the price of a mile
[04:09.81]That’s the price of a mile.
[04:35.58]Thousands of feet march to the beat
[04:38.07]It’s an army on the march
[04:41.52]Long way from home
[04:44.07]Paying the price in young men’s lives
[04:46.95]Thousands of feet march to the beat
[04:49.47]It’s an army in despair
[04:52.92]Knee-deep in mud
[04:55.44]Stuck in a trench with no way out
