[00:00.000] 作词 : Tamara Lindeman
[00:00.336] 作曲 : Tamara Lindeman
[00:00.673]
[00:19.776] You look small in your coat,
[00:22.954] One hand up on the window,
[00:26.171] So long now, you'd been lost in thought.
[00:35.376] No snow on the road,
[00:38.787] We'd been lucky and it looked like
[00:41.026] We would be well past orleans.
[00:50.829] And past montmagny,
[00:53.820] The road giving way to river,
[00:56.966] The frozen saint lawrence white and blue.
[01:03.079] We went out on the ice
[01:04.808] And i turned back to you.
[01:07.047] A figure distant and small in the long view.
[01:12.703] Was it the look in your eye? I wasn't sure.
[01:16.192] The way it is and the way it could be both are.
[01:22.131] We got back in the car.
[01:37.727] You always tell me the truth,
[01:39.966] Even when it hurts me it hurts you.
[01:43.608] Could you go a little easy -- would it kill you?
[01:49.636] Living out the dream,
[01:51.537] Out on the road now for a couple weeks.
[01:55.435] So intimate with all that we had wanted.
[01:58.520] All that we hoped for and all that we dreamed.
[02:02.474] The way it is the way it could be.
[02:15.271] But how long is it going to go on?
[02:17.029] I'm gonna count on.
[02:18.896] I'm gonna hold out for -- nothing much
[02:22.757] A little kindness.
[02:24.732] A little praise some days.
[02:26.390] I get so close, but i don't really touch
[02:30.434] What i get, or what i need.
[02:33.048] The way it is, the way it could be.
[02:45.813] Two brown dogs came out running cross the highway
[02:51.347] Panting and low to the ground.
[02:57.465] And then they were gone;
[02:59.137] For a moment, i had run them down.
[03:02.851] I closed and opened my eyes.
[03:06.398] They were running up the hill on the other side.
[03:10.329] The way it is and the way it could be -- both are.
[03:17.339]
