- YusufCat Stevens Ruins 歌詞
- YusufCat Stevens
- Its so quiet in the ruins
Walking though the old town
Stones crumbling under my feet
I see smoke for miles around
Oh, its enough to make you weep
All that remains of the main street
Up in the park on
SundayDogs chasing and the children played
Old man with his head down
Cant see nothing more around, no
But he remembers how it used to be
Back in the old days
So nice to see you coming
Back in this town again
Its nice to see a friendly face
Come peeping through
Having tea
In the afternoon, now
So nice to see you coming
Back in this town again
Ah, but its all changed
Winter turned on a man
Came down on day
When no one was looking
And it stole away the land
People running scared, losing hands
Dodging shadows of falling sand
Buildings standing like empty shells
And nobody, helping no one else
Young child with his hands high
Aint able to see no reason why, no
But he remembers how it used to be
So nice to see you coming
Back in this town again
Its nice to see a friendly face
Come peeping through
Youd better know
What youre going through now
You came back here to find
Your home is a black horizon
That you dont recognize
Evil destruction has taken everything
Youd better walk on the side
While youre still walking
Just keep on walking on
Down the street keep your distance
From the people you meet, oh,
LordAnd youd better watch your eyes
Cause if smoke gets inthem
Baby, you wont rise again
So nice to see you coming
Back in this town again
Wheres it leading to
Freedom at what cost
People needing more and more
And its all getting lost
I want back,
I want back
Back to the time
When the earth was green
And there was no high walls
And the sea was clean
Dont stop that sun to shine
Its not yours or mine, no
