[00:00.00] 作词 : Kris Kristofferson[00:01.00] 作曲 : Kris Kristofferson[00:07.90]Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down,[00:13.69]The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below.[00:20.37]Following their footsteps through the neon-darkened corridors,[00:25.86]Of silent desperation, never speaking to a soul.[00:34.22]The poison air he's breathing has the dirty smell of dying,[00:39.64]Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain.[00:47.19]But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes,[00:52.90]Of the clicking of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains.[01:04.97]"Oh," she said: "Casey, it's been so long since I've seen you."[01:14.01]"Here," she said: "just a kiss to make a body smile."[01:23.40]"See," she said: "I've put on new stockings just to please you."[01:32.82]"Lord," she said. "Casey, can you only stay a while."[01:46.85]Casey leaves the underground and stops inside The Golden Crown,[01:52.56]For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bones.[01:58.42]Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men,[02:03.86]Who reach for anything they can to keep from going home.[02:12.80]Standing in the corner, Casey drinks his pint of bitter,[02:18.05]Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by.[02:25.78]Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason,[02:31.00]Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye.[02:43.05]"Oh," she said: "I suppose you seldom think about me."[02:52.36]"Now," she said: "now that you've a family of your own."[03:01.43]"Still," she said: "It's so blessed good to feel your body."[03:11.31]"Lord," she said: "Casey, it's a shame to be alone."
