Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : P. SIMON
[00:01.00] 作词 : Simon
[00:20.35] Joseph's face was black as night
[00:26.28] The pale yellow moon shone in his eyes
[00:32.50] His path was marked
[00:35.17] By the stars in the Southern Hemisphere
[00:38.89] And he walked his days
[00:41.44] Under African skies
[00:45.94] This is the story of how we begin to remember
[00:52.15] This is the powerful pulsing of love in the vein
[00:58.53] After the dream of falling and calling your name out
[01:04.82] These are the roots of rhythm
[01:06.59] And the roots of rhythm remain
[01:24.26] In early memory
[01:28.28] Mission music
[01:29.98] Was ringing 'round my nursery door
[01:36.15] I said take this child,Lord
[01:39.47] From Tucson Arizona.
[01:42.67] Give her the wings to fly through harmony
[01:46.34] And she won't bother you no more
[01:49.91] This is the story of how we begin to remember
[01:56.15] This is the powerful pulsing of love in the vein
[02:02.76] After the dream of falling and calling your name out
[02:09.58] These are the roots of rhythm
[02:11.77] And the roots of rhythm remain ,music
[02:41.14] Joseph's face was as black as night
[02:46.00] And the pale yellow moon shone in his eyes
[02:52.74] His path was marked
[02:55.37] By the stars in the Southern Hemisphere
[02:59.07] And he walked the length of his days
[03:01.92] Under African skies
