作曲 : Hirway
When your father's ghost came round
you bade him to please stay
but he just slipped away
You cried all night in bed
as I held your trembling head
I said,"You've lost too much too fast.
But this too, will pass."
The last night when you left
your old New England town
by the cold Long Island Sound
Your winsome voice was pinched
When I leaned in close, you flinched.
You'd changed so much, so fast,
but I though,"This too, will pass."
I rode down the dark street
and stopped out in the snow
I watched my friends through their front window
They laughed under the lights
but I turned back towards the night
They don't know not to ask
though this too, will pass
