[00:00.00]The Priest - Joni Mitchell (琼尼·米契儿)
[00:18.90]The priest sat in the airport bar
[00:21.35]He was wearing his father's tie
[00:27.64]And his eyes looked into my eyes so far
[00:30.76]Whenever the words ran dry
[00:37.02]Behind the lash and the circles blue
[00:39.51]He looked as only a priest can thru
[00:45.75]And his eyes said me and his eyes said you
[00:52.86]And my eyes said let us try
[01:07.97]He said"You wouldn't like it here
[01:10.47]No it's no place you should share
[01:16.90]The roof is ripped with hurricanes
[01:18.71]And the room is always bare
[01:25.36]I need the wind and I seek the cold"
[01:28.41]He reached post the wine for my hand to hold
[01:33.90]And he saw me young and he saw me old
[01:41.64]And he saw me sitting there
[01:56.48]Then he took his contradictions out
[01:59.03]And he splashed them on my brow
[02:05.03]So which words was I then to doubt
[02:08.15]When choosing what to vow
[02:13.94]Should I choose them all-should I make them mine
[02:16.73]The sermons the hymns and the valentines
[02:22.67]And he asked for truth and he asked for time
[02:30.59]And he asked for only now
[02:37.58]Now the trials are trumpet scored
[02:40.39]Oh will we pass the test
[02:45.89]Or just as one loves more and more
[02:49.08]Will one love less and less
[02:55.07]Oh come let's run from this ring we're in
[02:57.81]Where the Christians clap and the Germans grin
[03:06.36]Saying let them lose crying let them win
[03:14.68]Oh make them both confess
