The Last Song For My Resting Place 歌詞

Mother, father, thank you so For keeping the fires burning home Brother, brother, for giving shelter Throughout those years of war Oh now that it's nearly over After a long night in wait I'd soothe every soul With the last comfort, but mine I believe in love and you need to know That my heart's in your embrace Now I'm leaving well but I bid farewell One last song for my resting place I grew up on a family farm Where the wheat grows like gold I played his music, he forgave my sins As foretold in the books of old Oh now that it's nearly over After a long night in wait I'd soothe every soul With the last comfort, but mine I believe in love and you need to know That my heart's in your embrace Now I'm leaving well but I bid farewell One last song for my resting place Dear maria, enjoy your life You've always known that I'm by your side These are fortunes worse than war Beyond my reach and I have no more My father said upon his death Son, don't shed a tear for me Mrs. Robinson my only life Nearer to God than to thee Oh now that it's nearly over After a long night in wait I'd soothe every soul With the last comfort, but mine I believe in love and you need to know That my heart's in your embrace Now I'm leaving well but I bid farewell One last song for my resting place My father said on his deathbed Son, don't shed those tears for me Mrs. Robinson oh you are my love Nearer to God than to thee Oh maria, I loved you so The heart grows fonder as I go Please think of me as I sleep From beyond the ship into the deep
