Paul Simon( 保羅賽門 ) American Tune 歌詞

14.American Tune

作詞：Del Newman、Paul Simon
作曲：Del Newman、Paul Simon

Many's the time I've been mistaken
And many times confused
Yes, and often left forsaken
And certainly misused
But I'm all right, I'm all right
I'm just weary to my bones
Still, you don't expect to be
Bright and bon vivant
So far away from home, so far away from home

And I don't know a soul who's not been battered
I don't have a friend who feels at ease
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered
or driven to its knees
But it's all right, it's all right
We've live so well so long
Still, when I think of the road
We're travelling on
I can't help it, I wonder what went wrong

And I dreamed I was dying
And I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly
And looking down at me
Smiled reassuringly
And I dreamed I was flying
And high up above my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty
Sailing away to sea
And I dreamed I was flying

We come on the ship they call the Mayflower
We come on the ship that sailed the moon
We come in the age's most uncertain hour
and sing an American tune
But it's all right, it's all right
you can't be forever blessed
Still, tommorow's going to be another working day
And I'm trying to get some rest
That's all I'm trying to get some rest
