[00:00.00] 作曲 : Sting
[00:00.00] 作词 : Sting
[00:00.00]
[00:01.00]
[00:51.0] Let me watch by the fire and remember my days
[00:55.770] And it may be a trick of the firelight
[01:01.60] But the flickering pages that trouble my sight
[01:06.90] Is a book I'm afraid to write
[01:09.690]
[01:10.970] It's the book of my days, it's the book of my life
[01:15.539] And it's cut like a fruit on the blade of a knife
[01:20.230] And it's all there to see as the section reveals
[01:25.130] There's some sorrow in every life
[01:29.320]
[01:30.520] If it reads like a puzzle, a wandering maze
[01:34.830] Then I won't understand ‘til the end of my days
[01:39.620] I'm still forced to remember,
[01:43.20] Remember the words of my life
[01:46.670]
[01:54.720] There are promises broken and promises kept
[01:59.289] Angry words that were spoken, when I should have wept
[02:04.190] There's a chapter of secrets, and words to confess
[02:09.190] If I lose everything that I possess
[02:14.710] There's a chapter on loss and a ghost who won't die
[02:18.870] There's a chapter on love where the ink's never dry
[02:23.740] There are sentences served in a prison I built out of lies.
[02:31.180]
[02:35.600] Though the pages are numbered
[02:41.690] I can't see where they lead
[02:46.270] For the end is a mystery no-one can read
[02:52.420] In the book of my life
[02:55.620]
[03:06.210] There's a chapter on fathers a chapter on sons
[03:10.320] There are pages of conflicts that nobody won
[03:15.190] And the battles you lost and your bitter defeat,
[03:20.210] There's a page where we fail to meet
[03:24.360]
[03:25.579] There are tales of good fortune that couldn't be planned
[03:30.40] There's a chapter on god that I don't understand
[03:35.110] There's a promise of Heaven and Hell but I'm damned if I see
[03:41.870]
[03:47.960] Though the pages are numbered
[03:52.190] I can't see where they lead
[03:56.860] For the end is a mystery no-one can read
[04:04.130] In the book of my life
[04:07.390]
[04:24.870] Now the daylight's returning
[04:28.850] And if one sentence is true
[04:33.909] All these pages are burning
[04:38.590] And all that's left is you
[04:53.909]
[05:06.460] Though the pages are numbered
[05:10.650] I can't see where they lead
[05:15.450] For the end is a mystery no-one can read
[05:22.160] In the book of my life
[05:26.770]
