[00:10.27] |
I met a woman long ago |
[00:12.55] |
her hair the black that black can go, |
[00:15.12] |
Are you a teacher of the heart? |
[00:17.58] |
Soft she answered no. |
[00:19.09] |
|
[00:22.31] |
I met a girl across the sea, |
[00:24.76] |
her hair the gold that gold can be, |
[00:27.69] |
Are you a teacher of the heart? |
[00:30.38] |
Yes, but not for thee. |
[00:31.96] |
|
[00:34.48] |
I met a man who lost his mind |
[00:36.94] |
in some lost place I had to find, |
[00:39.52] |
follow me the wise man said, |
[00:42.38] |
but he walked behind. |
[00:43.82] |
|
[00:46.84] |
I walked into a hospital |
[00:49.23] |
where none was sick and none was well, |
[00:51.79] |
when at night the nurses left |
[00:54.30] |
I could not walk at all. |
[00:56.42] |
|
[00:59.29] |
Morning came and then came noon, |
[01:01.56] |
dinner time a scalpel blade |
[01:03.86] |
lay beside my silver spoon. |
[01:06.76] |
|
[01:10.14] |
Some girls wander by mistake |
[01:12.42] |
into the mess that scalpels make. |
[01:14.81] |
Are you the teachers of my heart? |
[01:17.17] |
We teach old hearts to break. |
[01:19.34] |
|
[01:22.15] |
One morning I woke up alone, |
[01:24.43] |
the hospital and the nurses gone. |
[01:27.10] |
Have I carved enough my Lord? |
[01:29.55] |
Child, you are a bone. |
[01:31.03] |
|
[01:34.23] |
I ate and ate and ate, |
[01:36.43] |
no I did not miss a plate, well |
[01:39.23] |
How much do these suppers cost? |
[01:41.58] |
We'll take it out in hate. |
[01:43.56] |
|
[01:46.46] |
I spent my hatred everyplace, |
[01:48.97] |
on every work on every face, |
[01:51.41] |
someone gave me wishes |
[01:53.68] |
and I wished for an embrace. |
[01:55.75] |
|
[01:58.85] |
Several girls embraced me, then |
[02:01.19] |
I was embraced by men, |
[02:03.87] |
Is my passion perfect? |
[02:05.69] |
No, do it once again. |
[02:07.47] |
|
[02:11.23] |
I was handsome I was strong, |
[02:13.23] |
I knew the words of every song. |
[02:15.65] |
Did my singing please you? |
[02:17.72] |
No, the words you sang were wrong. |
[02:19.68] |
|
[02:23.34] |
Who is it whom I address, |
[02:25.31] |
who takes down what I confess? |
[02:27.68] |
Are you the teachers of my heart? |
[02:30.07] |
We teach old hearts to rest. |
[02:32.45] |
|
[02:35.01] |
Oh teachers are my lessons done? |
[02:37.19] |
I cannot do another one. |
[02:39.57] |
They laughed and laughed and said, Well child, |
[02:42.27] |
are your lessons done? |
[02:46.10] |
are your lessons done? |
[02:49.82] |
are your lessons done? |
[02:57.00] |
