all the thwarted longings all the stern denials歌詞

"All the Thwarted Longings All the Stern Denials"是由Joan Baez演唱的一首歌曲,它也出現在電影《狼牙山五壯士》的插曲中。

歌詞全文如下:

All the thwarted longings

All the stern denials

All the unfulfilled promises

Of my childhood years

They come to me now

Like a train in the night

And I hear their whistle

Calling me away

I remember the day

When I stood alone

With my father's gun

In my hands

And I cried out to God

For a chance to run free

But he answered me with a bullet

And a memory of pain

Oh, my life has been sweet

Oh, my days have been blessed

But there's one thing I want

And it's not for my own use

It's for those who will come after me

Who will face their fears alone

And I'll give them what I've learned

If they'll let me

Oh, my friend, I am sorry

That I didn't make it to you

But I hope that my spirit will guide you

And my words will comfort you

And you'll know that you're not alone

In this life or the next

For I've been there before you

And I'll be there again soon

All the thwarted longings

All the stern denials

All the unfulfilled promises

Of my childhood years

They come to me now

Like a train in the night

And I hear their whistle calling me away.
