Song | Two Ragged Soldiers |
Artist | Scott Walker |
Album | Scott 3 |
作词 : Walker | |
They spoke transparent phrases to looking glass women | |
And they took the detours that scattered the way | |
They departed from summer like two ragged soldiers | |
Dragging their heels through their fantasies | |
There were meals in the missions for two frozen statues | |
And long draughty sermons devouring their knees | |
Sometimes passions in winter turn to cold soundless moments | |
That teared in the eyes of their fantasies | |
There were nights on park benches, stale bread for the pigeons | |
Good mornings to faces who just turned away | |
And on one road confusion, the other desire | |
So they took to the road of their fantasies | |
One would speak of a lake where he used to go swimming | |
The other had no memories left for his mind | |
With their arms round each other the two ragged soldiers | |
Laughed through a war that they couldn't see | |
Laughed for a world filled with fantasy |
