[00:00.00]My Father (我的父亲) - This Mortal Coil
[00:51.35]My father always promised us
[00:57.89]
[01:00.08]That we would live in france
[01:06.38]
[01:09.50]Wed go boating on the seine
[01:15.62]
[01:19.11]And I would learn to dance
[01:25.47]
[01:28.84]We lived in ohio then
[01:37.40]He worked in the mines
[01:45.82]
[01:47.94]On his dreams like boats
[01:53.12]We knew we would sail in time
[02:09.41]
[02:17.77]All my sisters soon were gone
[02:20.65]
[02:26.70]To denver and cheyenne
[02:34.64]
[02:35.77]Marrying their grownup dreams
[02:39.88]
[02:45.94]The lilacs and the man
[02:51.12]
[02:54.98]I stayed behind the youngest still
[03:02.10]
[03:03.72]Only danced alone
[03:11.27]
[03:12.83]The colors of my fathers dreams
[03:21.00]
[03:21.57]Faded without a sound
[03:38.34]
[04:03.17]And I live in paris now
[04:10.28]
[04:12.15]My children dance and dream
[04:18.27]
[04:21.45]Hearing the ways of a miners life
[04:29.00]
[04:31.43]In words theyve never seen
[04:37.24]
[04:40.98]I sail my memories of home
[04:48.03]
[04:49.34]Like boats across the seine
[05:00.03]And watch the paris sun
[05:10.95]
[05:15.01]As it sets in my fathers eyes again
