[02:36.00]作曲 : Janis Ian
[02:36.00]In the tangles of my mind
[02:36.00]And a haze of mourning wine
[02:36.00]As the swollen evening sun
[02:36.00]Turns to a morning shroud
[02:36.00]And the purple grains of sand
[02:36.00]Whisper through my hourglass hands
[02:36.00]Convincing me I've little time for sleeping
[02:36.00]And the sullen light of morning time
[02:36.00]Will come again
[02:36.00]Return my pain
[02:36.00]Take away my only escape
[02:36.00]Keeper, take me for a ride
[02:36.00]The evening's daylight stands outside
[02:36.00]Upon two-legged thoughts
[02:36.00]Of candles burning
[02:36.00]As the stardust in my eyes
[02:36.00]Turns to earthdust, halts my cries
[02:36.00]And life's a masochistic dream of learning
[02:36.00]And the sullen light of morning time
[02:36.00]Will come again
[02:36.00]Return my pain
[02:36.00]Take away my only escape
[02:36.00]Lock the canyons of my mind,
[02:36.00]And in sleep I'll forever lie
[02:36.00]As reality draws near to me
[02:36.00]I run screaming
[02:36.00]And the purple grains of man
[02:36.00]Whisper through my hourglass hands
[02:36.00]Convincing me to spend my time in dreaming
[02:36.00]And the sullen light of morning time
[02:36.00]Will come again
[02:36.00]Return my pain
[02:36.00]Take away my only escape
