Song | Minstrel |
Artist | Drifting Sun |
Album | On the Rebound |
作词 : Chris Martini | |
作曲 : Pat Sanders | |
If I could just hear the secrets of your heart | |
I could, I would… find the melody | |
I could dress the part | |
Or even paint my face | |
Singing songs in rhymes | |
The words they interlace | |
Would you think me a fool, or cry insanity? | |
The children gather round | |
To watch the minstrel dance | |
The colours and music blind | |
Holding eyes in trance | |
Swaying backward, forward | |
Rejoicing vanity | |
He lets his arms embrace you in the serenade | |
But look for where you go, you walk the fool’s parade | |
You let go, you dance | |
You’d give anything while given the chance | |
Watch where they go | |
You’d be losing the lot if you don’t catch the show | |
From his heart, he sings | |
From the depths of his soul comes a spark of dreams | |
Watch where he goes | |
You’ll be losing the chance to redeem your soul | |
Does he hold the key? | |
Can he set me free? | |
Mending hearts with melody… | |
One last look is all it takes | |
To claim your spirit, | |
Music raptures, numbing sadness | |
Can’t you… won’t you give yourself to me? | |
Fading sadness, passing fleeting | |
Rhythm charming, lifetime wander, | |
Breathless dreaming, turning magic, | |
Phantom healing, | |
Whence from this man takes my pain? | |
He has no other way | |
And life is but song in the park | |
Some may look the other way | |
For the song in our hearts | |
If we could only see the world | |
Through his eyes, through his songs | |
The way he sees | |
Can you hear the melodies? | |
Not from his voice, but from his heart | |
And of his soul | |
All that I can be (is as close a man as he) | |
All that I create (to his soul that I emulate) | |
Until one day I’m sure to find | |
A long-lost name I’ve left behind myself |
