作曲 : David Sylvian
Standing firm on this stony ground
The wind blows hard
Pulls these clothes around
I harbour all the same
Worries as most
The temptations to leave
Or to give up the ghost
I wrestle with an outlook on life
That shifts between darkness
And shadowy light
I struggle with words for
Fear that they'll hear
But orpheus sleeps on his back
Still dead to the world
Sunlight falls my wings open wide
There's a beauty here
I can not deny
And bottles that tumble
And crash on the stairs
Are just so many people
I knew never cared
Down below on the wreck
Of the ship
Are a stronghold of pleasures
I couldn't regret
But the baggage is swallowed up
By the tide
As orpheus keeps to his promise
And stays by my side
Tell me I've still a lot to learn
Understand
These fires never stop
Believe me when this joke
Is tired of laughing
I will hear the promise of
My orpheus sing
Sleepers sleep as
We row the boat
Just you the weather
And I gave up hope
But all of the hurdles
That fell in our laps
Were fuel for the fire
And straw for our backs
Still the voices
Have stories to tell
Of the power struggles
In heaven and hell
But we feel secure against
Such mighty dreams
As orpheus sings of
The promise tomorrow may bring
Tell me I've still a lot to learn
Understand these fires never stop
Please believe
When this joke is tired of laughing
I will hear the promise of
My orpheus sing
