Lucinda歌词

[00:00.394]Well, they call me William the Pleaser
[00:07.148]I sold opium, fireworks and lead
[00:12.400]Now I'm telling my troubles to strangers
[00:17.653]When the shadows get long I'll be dead
[00:22.660]
[00:23.160]Now, her hair was as black as a bucket of tar
[00:28.156]Her skin as white as a cuttlefish bone
[00:33.141]I left Texas to follow Lucinda
[00:37.891]Now I'll never see heaven or home
[00:42.396]
[00:42.905]I made a wish on a sliver of moonlight
[00:48.899]A sly grin and a bowl full of stars
[00:55.148]Like a kid who captures a firefly
[00:58.656]And leaves it only to die in the jar
[01:04.654]
[01:04.897]As I kick at the clouds at my hanging
[01:08.648]As I swing out over the crowd
[01:13.895]I will search every face for Lucinda's
[01:18.898]And she will go off with me down to hell
[01:22.895]
[01:24.660]I thought I'd broke loose of Lucinda
[01:29.393]The rain returned and so did the wind
[01:34.155]I cast this burden on the god that's within me
[01:38.646]And I'll leave this old world and go free
[01:43.895]
[01:44.662]The devil dances inside empty pockets
[01:49.896]But she never wanted money or pearls
[01:54.644]No, that wasn't enough for Lucinda
[02:00.647]She wasn't that kind of girl
[02:05.151]
[02:05.396]Now I've fallen from grace for Lucinda
[02:10.145]Whoever thought that hell be'd so low
[02:15.146]I did well for an old tin can sailor
[02:20.150]But she wanted the bell in my soul
[02:24.647]
[02:25.145]I've spoken the god on the mountain
[02:30.653]And I've swam in the Irish sea
[02:35.657]I ate fire and drank from the Ganges
[02:40.899]And I'll beg there for mercy for me
[02:45.150]
[02:46.146]I thought I'd broke loose from Lucinda
[03:12.404]The rain returned and so did the wind
[03:18.143]I was standing outside the Whitehorse
[03:22.893]Oh but I was afraid to go in
[03:26.647]
[03:27.898]I heard someone pull the trigger
[03:33.142]Her breasts heaved in the moonlight again
[03:37.408]There was a smear of gold in the window
[03:43.651]And then I was the jewel of her sin
[03:47.649]
[03:49.413]They call me William the Pleaser
[03:53.896]I sold opium, fireworks and lead
[03:58.906]Now I'm telling my troubles to strangers
[04:03.906]When the shadows get long I'll be dead
[04:08.392]
[04:09.146]Now her hair was a black as a bucket of tar
[04:14.395]Skin as white as a cuttlefish bone
[04:18.648]I left Texas to follow Lucinda
[04:24.150]I know I'll never see heaven or home
[04:29.667]I know I'll never see heaven or home
[04:34.149]I know I'll never see heaven or home
