Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作词 : Carole King
[00:15.400] My life has been a tapestry
[00:18.830]
[00:19.390] Of rich and royal hue;
[00:21.770]
[00:23.210] An everlasting vision
[00:25.260]
[00:27.080] Of the ever-changing view;
[00:29.580]
[00:30.670] A wond'rous woven magic
[00:33.230]
[00:33.620] In bits of blue and gold;
[00:35.930]
[00:36.800] A tapestry to feel and see;
[00:40.110]
[00:40.800] Impossible to hold.
[00:43.290]
[00:44.660] Once amid the soft silver
[00:47.910] Sadness in the sky,
[00:50.160]
[00:51.350] There came a man of fortune;
[00:53.710]
[00:54.400] A drifter passing by.
[00:56.270]
[00:57.210] He wore a torn and tattered cloth
[01:00.950]
[01:01.520] Around his leathered hide
[01:03.080]
[01:04.560] And a coat of many colors;
[01:07.630] Yellow, green, on either side.
[01:10.000]
[01:14.870] He moved with some uncertainty
[01:17.110]
[01:18.180] As if he didn't know
[01:19.610]
[01:21.920] Just what he was there for
[01:24.410] Or where he ought to go.
[01:26.970]
[01:28.470] Once he reached for something
[01:30.350]
[01:31.030] Golden hanging from a tree
[01:33.650]
[01:34.340] And his hand came down emp-ty.
[01:37.450]
[01:41.950] Soon within my tapestry,
[01:43.630]
[01:44.570] Along the rutted road,
[01:46.450]
[01:47.940] He sat down on a river rock
[01:50.990] And turned into a toad.
[01:52.880]
[01:54.500] It seemed that he had fallen
[01:55.820]
[01:57.390] Into someone's wicked spell
[01:59.450]
[02:00.510] And I wept to see him suffer,
[02:03.130]
[02:03.990] Though I didn't know him well.
[02:05.950]
[02:08.070] As I watched in sorrow,
[02:10.070]
[02:11.010] There suddenly appeared
[02:12.190]
[02:14.060] A figure gray and ghostly
[02:16.500]
[02:17.120] Beneath a flowing beard.
[02:19.120]
[02:20.610] In times of deepest darkness
[02:22.870]
[02:24.110] I've seen him dressed in black.
[02:26.110]
[02:26.850] Now my tapestry's unraveling;
[02:29.550]
[02:30.550] He's come to take me back.
[02:33.170]
[02:34.300] He's come to take me back.
