Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作词 : Cousins
[00:02.58] While seasons change in timely way
[00:11.19] The salt sea ever flows
[00:18.78] Where open moors lie cold and bleak
[00:27.95] A single flower grows.
[00:42.93] Though winter snows fall deep and long
[00:51.85] The flower grows the while
[00:58.93] The weary traveller passing by
[01:07.27] Feels warmer for her smile.
[01:37.56] Sunshine and the tender flower
[01:45.62] Both melt the young man's heart
[01:52.39] But he who lingers waits his turn
[02:00.77] Must learn to play his part.
[02:10.94] Through summer days of warmth and love
[02:19.32] The young man tends his flower
[02:26.14] But blinded by her colours bright
[02:34.77] Heeds not the passing hour.
[03:05.10] The autumn trees once clothed with gold
[03:13.21] Now frayed and sadly worn
[03:19.99] The flower bids a chill farewell
[03:28.58] The young man's heart is torn.
[03:39.02] While seasons change in timely way
[03:47.89] The salt sea ever flows
[03:55.18] Where open moors lie cold and bleak
[04:03.79] A single flower grows.
