harbor song (live)
Suzanne Vega
harbor song (live) 歌詞
I dreamed you were a rich man
and that I had no place to go
I came to you to see if you would take me in
through golden curtains you told me you' d let me know.
well, you drink for ten and you smoke for twenty
and your fickle heart will never be true
but still I feel the wind in from the harbor
that's when I know the longing for you
when I know the old longing for you.
I saw you in my mind's eye
you were laid out on your final day
I stood in line to see that handsome face once more
it had been so dear to me, and I kissed you as you lay
you were so dear, I kissed you as you lay.
now, whenever I do travel
if to Portugal, England, or Spain
as I do walk by the shipyards and the harbors
I smell the salt, and the bay rum of your ghost again
I know the salt, and the bay rum, you beside me again.
