- Jackson Browne Farther On (2014 Remaster) 歌詞
- Jackson Browne
- In my early years I hid my tears
And passed my days alone
Adrift on an ocean of loneliness
My dreams like nets were thrown
To catch the love that Id heard of
In books and films and songs
Now theres a world of illusion and fantasy
In the place where the real world belongs
Still I look for the beauty in songs
To fill my head and lead me on
Though my dreams have come up torn and empty
As many times as love has come and gone
To those gentle ones my memory runs
To the laughter we shared at the meals
I filled their kitchens and living rooms
With my schemes and my broken wheels
It was never clear how far or near
The gates to my citadel lay
They were cutting from stone some dreams of their own
But they listened to mine anyway
Im not sure what Im trying to say
It could be Ive lost my way
Though I keep a watch over the distance
Heavens no closer than it was yesterday
And the angels are older
They know not to wait up for the sun
They look over my shoulder
At the maps and the drawings of the journey Ive begun
Now the distance leads me farther on
Though the reasons I once had are gone
I keep thinking Ill find what Im looking for
In the sand beneath the dawn
But the angels are older
They can see that the suns setting fast
They look over my shoulder
At the vision of paradise contained in the light of the past
And they lay down behind me
To sleep beside the road till the morning has come
Where they know they will findme
With my maps and my faith in the distance
Moving farther on
