歌词

[00:31.100] Now the swan it floated on the English river
[00:37.460]
[00:38.640] Ah the rose of high romance it opened wide
[00:44.200]
[00:45.010] A sun tanned woman yearned me through the summer
[00:50.190]
[00:51.120] And the judges watched us from the other side
[00:55.680]
[00:57.430] I told my mother Mother I must leave you
[01:01.860]
[01:03.670] Preserve my room but do not shed a tear
[01:08.990]
[01:09.930] Should rumor of a shabby ending reach you
[01:14.850]
[01:15.980] It was half my fault and half the atmosphere
[01:21.120]
[01:22.240] But the rose I sickened with a scarlet fever
[01:27.790]
[01:28.420] And the swan I tempted with a sense of shame
[01:33.210]
[01:34.270] She said at last I was her finest lover
[01:40.390]
[01:41.010] And if she withered I would be to blame
[01:46.320]
[01:47.120] The judges said You missed it by a fraction
[01:51.420]
[01:53.100] Rise up and brace your troops for the attack
[01:58.160]
[01:59.400] Ah the dreamers ride against the men of action
[02:04.590]
[02:05.580] Oh see the men of action falling back
[02:10.580]
[02:11.700] But I lingered on her thighs a fatal moment
[02:16.560]
[02:17.630] And I kissed her lips as though I thirsted still
[02:24.010] My falsity had stung me like a hornet
[02:29.380]
[02:30.380] The poison sank and it paralyzed my will
[02:35.430]
[02:36.550] I could not move to warn all the younger soldiers
[02:41.040]
[02:42.670] That they had been deserted from above
[02:47.420]
[02:48.490] So on battlefields from here to Barcelona
[02:55.170] I'm listed with the enemies of love
[03:01.400]
[03:05.650] And long ago she said I must be leaving
[03:12.070] Ah but keep my body here to lie upon
[03:17.750]
[03:18.320] You can move it up and down and when I'm sleeping
[03:24.330]
[03:24.950] Run some wire through that rose and wind the swan
[03:30.130]
[03:31.250] So daily I renew my idle duty
[03:36.180]
[03:37.430] I touch her here and there I know my place
[03:43.300] I kiss her open mouth and I praise her beauty
[03:49.840] And people call me traitor to my face
[03:54.840]
[04:20.860] And people call me traitor to my face
