On the streets of the city

On the streets of the city

Chaos is king

The world is on fire

As freedom sets in

The fighting is over

But the war’s just begun

It’s the end of a promise

And the change that will come

My body is tired

But my heart aches for you

For the souls of your country

And what we put you through

We share the grief 

Now I share your pain

And I wonder

Will you ever find freedom again?

And I wonder

Will you ever find freedom again?

Will you find freedom again?

On the wings of a phoenix

I look down below

The jungle’s still green

And the river still flows

The dead and the wounded

And the fatherless child

Are quickly forsaken

With fear running wild

 

The battle is over

But one flag still flies

It’s the love of freedom

I see in your eyes

When brother fights brother

No one can win

I wonder

Will you ever find freedom again?

And I wonder

Will you ever find freedom again?

Now I wonder

If you ever will

I wonder

Will you ever find freedom again?

 

No medals, no ribbons

No welcome parades

It’s a lonely road home

And a heavy price paid

Now I say a prayer

For those that we’ve laid

And I wonder

Will they ever find freedom again?

 

--- From Movie <Missing In Action III>, The Fall of Saigon.

• 週末看電影，抄下這歌詞，覺著比較應景，當下的全封閉，和局部的戰爭。“Chaos” 也可能翻譯成“趙家”，絕妙的雙關。 -秦照- ♂ (0 bytes) () 04/10/2022 postreply 19:36:31
