作词 : Glenn Meling 作曲 : Glenn Meling Minnesota Before me shines a dimming light Gleaming like the reaper’s eye And we both know there’s nothing left But frozen fields and emptiness We are scarecrows dressed in rags When I met you that summer’s night I promised you a better life In the ground the cancer spread Like an endless night weaving threads Of hunger, decease and death Just beneath our feet Just beneath our feet Sail away with me While the night’s still young To Minnesota to St. Paul We are twins in spirit and twins in soul And I won’t hold you back There is something that you must grasp I will hold you close and never rest And one day you will be a part of me Minnesota Every thought is bound to fly From chains and shackles and across the sky Eyes will flow with waves of tears But let them know you’ll take them there tonight
