[00:00.000] 作词 : Kristofferson
[00:06.370]See the ruin on the hill where the smoke is hanging still
[00:12.820]Like an echo of an age long forgotten;
[00:19.501]There's a story of a home crushed beneath those blackened stones
[00:25.731]And the roof which fell before the beams were rotten.
[00:34.957]Cecil darby loved his wife, and he laboured all his life
[00:41.953]To provide her with material possessions;
[00:48.016]And he built for her a home of the finest wood and stone
[00:54.645]And the building soon became his sole obsession.
[01:03.697]Oh, it took three hundred days for the timbers to be raised
[01:10.165]And the silhouette was seen for miles around;
[01:16.704]And the gables reached as high as the eagles in the sky -
[01:22.833]But it only took one night to bring it down,
[01:29.503]When darby's castle tumbled to the ground.
[01:38.402]Though they shared a common bed there was precious little said
[01:44.762]In the moments that were set aside for sleeping:
[01:50.879]For his busy dreams were filled with the rooms he'd yet to build
[01:57.314]And he never heard young ellen darby weeping.
[02:05.950]Then one night he heard a sound, as he laid his pencil down,
[02:12.602]And he traced it to her door and turned the handle;
[02:19.229]And the pale light of the moon through the window of the room
[02:25.133]Split the shadows where two bodies lay entangled.
[02:34.356]Oh, it took three hundred days for the timbers to be raised
[02:40.259]And the silhouette was seen for miles around;
[02:46.538]And the gables reached as high as the eagles in the sky -
[02:52.257]But it only took one night to bring it down,
[02:58.911]When darby's castle tumbled to the ground.
