[00:00.377] 作词 : Leonard Cohen
[00:01.133] The rain falls down on last year's man,
[00:08.139] that's a Jew's harp on the table,
[00:11.493] that's a crayon in his hand.
[00:20.08] And the corners of the blueprint are ruined since they rolled
[00:24.759] far past the stems of thumbtacks
[00:28.262] that still throw shadows on the wood.
[00:32.816] And the skylight is like skin for a drum I'll never mend
[00:40.923] and all the rain falls down amen
[00:50.977] on the works of last year's man.
[01:02.786] I met a lady,she was playing with her soldiers in the dark
[01:12.693] oh one by one she had to tell them
[01:18.594] that her name was Joan of Arc.
[01:26.396] I was in that army,yes I stayed a little while;
[01:33.352] I want to thank you,Joan of Arc,
[01:42.355] for treating me so well.
[01:48.208] And though I wear a uniform I was not born to fight;
[01:57.710] all these wounded boys you lie beside,
[02:03.565] goodnight,my friends,goodnight.
[02:13.528] I came upon a wedding that old families had contrived;
[02:24.181] Bethlehem the bridegroom,
[02:29.282] Babylon the bride.
[02:34.84] Great Babylon was naked,oh she stood there trembling for me,
[02:45.188] and Bethlehem inflamed us both
[02:48.390] like the shy one at some orgy.
[02:54.443] And when we fell together all our flesh was like a veil
[03:04.696] that I had to draw aside to see
[03:10.646] the serpent eat its tail.
[03:19.550] Some women wait for Jesus,and some women wait for Cain
[03:28.355] so I hang upon my altar
[03:33.205] and I voice my acts again.
[03:39.56] And I take the one who finds me back to where it all began
[03:49.259] when Jesus was the honeymoon
[03:55.681] and Cain was just the man.
[03:59.830] And we read from pleasant Bibles that are bound in blood and skin
[04:10.551] that the wilderness is gathering
[04:15.111] all its children back again.
[04:23.962] The rain falls down on last year's man,
[04:34.715] an hour has gone by
[04:38.816] and he has not moved his hand.
[04:45.567] But everything will happen if he only gives the word;
[04:55.268] the lovers will rise up
[04:58.468] and the mountains touch the ground.
[05:04.521] But the skylight is like skin for a drum I'll never mend
[05:15.272] and all the rain falls down amen
[05:21.973] on the works of last year's man.
