[00:00.000] 作曲 : Burt Bacharach
[00:08.268]He's given me things you never would have
[00:13.580]And if you did you'd want them back
[00:17.320]Forgiven me things I didn't know that
[00:22.686]I had done, but just faded to black
[00:26.694]
[00:26.931]He's given me time and consolation
[00:30.960]Some verses to read and lines to say
[00:35.446]I will stay here for a while now
[00:40.534]He call me "child" now
[00:44.627]But it works that way
[00:47.140]
[00:49.100]He's given me things you couldn't guess at
[00:53.717]I don't mean jewels although they were fine
[00:58.250]A way to depart, one way to enter
[01:02.484]A right to dismiss upon a whim
[01:07.181]When I close the door and you're supposing
[01:11.536]I kick up my heels and then I scream
[01:18.348]"Why was I chosen?" You'll never know
[01:24.910]What I give to him
[01:28.583]
[01:29.394]He's given me things you never thought of
[01:34.873]Because they were not yours to give
[01:38.214]So take this pill and tranquilize
[01:42.866]And roll your eyes at the husbands
[01:48.131]Not the customer's wives
[01:51.440]
[01:52.696]He's forgiven me trials and tears and tantrums
[01:57.692]And even all my false alarms
[02:01.704]You sat there amused while I was crying
[02:06.224]And just seemed to sigh but that's money can buy
[02:10.873]And now I know why I come back to him
[02:15.431]And now I know why you'll never do
[02:20.106]Who are you?
[02:21.867]Out there with one penny
[02:25.023]You are so many
[02:28.878]And we are so few
[02:31.346]
[02:33.186]So cover the canvas if you're leaving
[02:37.670]There's a bowl in the hallways to wash your hands
[02:42.203]If the waters runs black please leave some silver
[02:46.883]Then step past the glass and never come back
[02:51.160]I'm living up here and you can see me
[02:56.102]Yes, you can look but you can't touch
[03:00.158]'Cause you don't belong, the air is thin here
[03:05.113]You may asphyxiate my dear
[03:09.354]For didn't you tell me "You should hold me"
[03:13.455]"Oh please, you must hold me, as if I were hung"
[03:20.569]To think you were exciting when love was frightening
[03:27.240]But I was so young
[03:29.998]
[03:31.750]He's given me things you never dreamed of
[03:36.910]Where hopes are dashed and trash is praised
[03:41.258]He has an awful lot of money
[03:45.727]The past can be bought and then erased
