歌曲 | Another Christmas |
歌手 | Over the Rhine |
专辑 | Blood Oranges in the Snow |
Another Christmas is drifting in softly | |
Like the ghost of my innocence lost | |
And the tree in the corner burns brightly | |
I turned all the other lights off | |
I think back on my life in this stillness | |
I consider the days of my youth | |
And the moments I find myself willing | |
To surrender and just tell the truth | |
‘Cause I’ve committed every sin | |
And each one leaves a different scar | |
It’s just the world I’m livin’ in | |
And I could use a guiding star | |
I hope that I can still believe | |
The Christ child holds a gift for me | |
Am I able to receive | |
Peace on earth this Christmas | |
This old world so sweet and so bitter | |
Seeds of violence we humans have sown | |
And these weapons we still love to handle | |
May our children have strength to let go | |
When we look at the stars after midnight | |
Sparkling rumors of redemption at play | |
Can we still hear the echoes of angels | |
Who were singing that first Christmas day | |
‘Cause we’ve committed every sin | |
And each one leaves a different scar | |
It’s just the world we’re living in | |
And we could use a guiding star | |
I hope that we can still believe | |
The Christ child holds a gift for us | |
Are we able to receive | |
Peace on earth this Christmas | |
Hark the herald angels sing | |
Glory to the newborn king | |
Peace on earth and mercy mild | |
God and sinners reconciled | |
Joyful all ye nations rise | |
Join the triumph of the skies | |
With angelic hosts proclaim | |
Peace on earth this Christmas |
Another Christmas is drifting in softly | |
Like the ghost of my innocence lost | |
And the tree in the corner burns brightly | |
I turned all the other lights off | |
I think back on my life in this stillness | |
I consider the days of my youth | |
And the moments I find myself willing | |
To surrender and just tell the truth | |
' Cause I' ve committed every sin | |
And each one leaves a different scar | |
It' s just the world I' m livin' in | |
And I could use a guiding star | |
I hope that I can still believe | |
The Christ child holds a gift for me | |
Am I able to receive | |
Peace on earth this Christmas | |
This old world so sweet and so bitter | |
Seeds of violence we humans have sown | |
And these weapons we still love to handle | |
May our children have strength to let go | |
When we look at the stars after midnight | |
Sparkling rumors of redemption at play | |
Can we still hear the echoes of angels | |
Who were singing that first Christmas day | |
' Cause we' ve committed every sin | |
And each one leaves a different scar | |
It' s just the world we' re living in | |
And we could use a guiding star | |
I hope that we can still believe | |
The Christ child holds a gift for us | |
Are we able to receive | |
Peace on earth this Christmas | |
Hark the herald angels sing | |
Glory to the newborn king | |
Peace on earth and mercy mild | |
God and sinners reconciled | |
Joyful all ye nations rise | |
Join the triumph of the skies | |
With angelic hosts proclaim | |
Peace on earth this Christmas |
