- Mary Chapin Carpenter Jubilee (Album Version) 歌词
- Mary Chapin Carpenter
- I can tell by the way you're walking,
you don't want company
I'll let you alone and I'll let you walk on and
In your own good time you'll be
Back where the sun can find you,
under the wise wishing tree
And with all of them made well lie
under the shade and call it a jubilee
And I can tell by the way youre talking,
that the past isn't letting you go
There's only so long you can take it all on,
And then the wrong's gotta be on its own
And when youre ready to leave it behind you,
Youll look back and all that you'll see
Is the wreckage and rust that you left
in the dust on your way to the jubilee
And I can tell by the way you're listening,
That youre still expecting to hear
Your name being called like a summons
to all who have failed to account
For their doubts and their fears,
They can't add up to to much without you
And so if it were up to me
I'd take hold of your hand
Saying come hear the band
play your song at the jubilee
And I can tell by the way you're searching,
For something you can't even name
That you haven't been able to come to the table,
Simply glad that you came
When you feel like this try to imagine
that were all like frail boats on the sea
Just scanning the night for
that great guiding light announcing the jubilee
And I can tell by the way
you're standing with your eyes filling with tears
That its habit alone that keeps you turning for home,
even though your home is right here
Where the people who love you are gathered,
under the wise wishing tree
May we all be considered
then straight on delivered down to the jubilee
Because to people who love you are waiting,
And they'll wait just as long as need be
When we look back and say those were halcyon days
Were talking about jubilee
