Static on the Radio - Jim White

[00:00.000] 作词 : White Nawat
[00:44.552]3 A.M. I'm awakened
[00:47.451]By a sweet summer rain
[00:51.735]Distant howling of a passing
[00:57.535]Southbound coal train
[00:59.781]Was I dreaming
[01:01.688]Or was there someone just lying here beside me in this bed?
[01:07.644]Am I hearing things?
[01:09.655]Or in the next room
[01:11.954]Did a long forgotten music box just start playing?
[01:15.951]And I know (it's a sin putting words in the mouths of the dead)
[01:21.646]And I know (it's a crime to weave your wishes into what they said)
[01:27.523]And I know (only fools venture where them spirits tread)
[01:33.479]'Cause I know (every word, every sound bouncing 'round my head)
[01:38.782]Is just static on the radio (Static on the radio)
[01:46.984]Static on the radio (Static on the radio)
[01:54.821]Static on the radio
[01:57.930](Everything I think I know is just static on the radio)
[02:03.050]Static on the radio
[02:05.113](Everything I think I know is just static on the radio)
[02:13.159]Midnight rendevous
[02:15.484]With a pretty girl
[02:16.999]Wearing a torn and tear-stained gown
[02:20.891]Like a ghost ship she appeared from nowhere
[02:24.784]On a lonely highway and flagged me down
[02:28.415]I gave her a lift downtown to the Greyhound station
[02:33.091]Under the flicker of the neon light
[02:36.722]She kissed me goodbye
[02:38.681]And in the mirror of her eyes I saw my own reflection
[02:44.088]And I know (the blind will sometimes lead the blind)
[02:50.566]And I know (through shadowlands and troubled times)
[02:56.183]And I know (forsaking love, we see it's a sign)
[03:01.851]And I know (of truths forever hid behind)
[03:07.468]Static on the radio (Static on the radio)
[03:15.435]Static on the radio (Static on the radio)
[03:23.246]Static on the radio
[03:25.571](Everything I think I know is just static on the radio)
[03:31.239]Static on the radio
[03:33.381](Everything I think I know is just static on the radio)
[03:41.087]
[04:15.778]Now there's a church house
[04:17.998]About a stone's throw down
[04:19.827]From this place where I been staying
[04:22.909]It's Sunday morning
[04:25.365]And I'm sittin' in my truck
[04:27.951]Listening to my neighbor sing
[04:31.216]Ten years ago I might have joined in
[04:34.900]But don't time change those inclined
[04:39.419]To think less of what is written
[04:43.154]Than what's wrote between the lines?
[04:47.438]'Cause I know (dreams are for those who are asleep in bed)
[04:53.551]And I know (it's a sin putting words in the mouths of the dead)
[04:59.507]'Cause I know (for all my ruminations I can't change a thing)
[05:05.071]Still I hope (there's others out there who are listening)
[05:10.740]To the static on the radio (static on the radio)
[05:18.916]Static on the radio
[05:21.319](Everything I think I know is just static on the radio)
[05:26.648]Static on the radio
[05:28.790](Ain't praying for miracles, I'm just down on my knees)
[05:34.537]Static on the radio
[05:36.757](Listening for the song behind everything I think I know)
[05:42.374]Static on the radio
[05:44.098](Everything I think I know is just static on the radio)
