[00:00.00]Mrs. Potters Lullaby - Counting Crows (数乌鸦)
[00:15.06]Well i woke up in mid-afternoon
[00:18.14]Cause that's when it all hurts the most
[00:24.45]I dream i never know
[00:26.27]Anyone at the party
[00:28.48]And i'm always the host
[00:35.05]If dreams are like movies
[00:37.21]Then memories are films about ghosts
[00:44.71]You can never escape
[00:47.52]You can only move south
[00:49.20]Down the coast
[00:54.47]Well i am an idiot walking a tightrope
[00:58.77]Of fortune and fame
[01:04.43]I am an acrobat swinging trapezes
[01:08.20]Through circles of flame
[01:14.75]If you've never stared off
[01:16.68]Into the distance
[01:18.52]Then your life is a shame
[01:24.92]And though i'll never forget your face
[01:27.65]Sometimes i can't remember my name
[01:35.42]Hey mrs potter don't cry
[01:40.49]Hey mrs potter i know why but
[01:45.53]Hey mrs potter won't you talk to me
[01:54.91]Well there's a piece of maria
[01:57.96]In every song that i sing
[02:05.04]And the price of a memory
[02:07.36]Is the memory of the sorrow it brings
[02:14.95]And there is always one last light
[02:17.51]To turn out and one last bell to ring
[02:24.98]And the last one out of the circus
[02:28.53]Has to lock up everything
[02:34.54]Or the elephants will get out
[02:37.35]And forget to remember what you said
[02:44.97]And the ghosts of the tilt-a-whirl
[02:48.12]Will linger inside of your head
[02:55.01]And the ferris wheel junkies
[02:57.64]Will spin there forever instead
[03:05.02]When i see you a blanket of stars
[03:08.77]Covers me in my bed
[03:15.57]Hey mrs potter don't go
[03:19.93]I said
[03:20.53]Hey mrs potter i don't know but
[03:25.53]Hey mrs potter won't you talk to me
[03:35.17]All the blue light reflections that color
[03:38.44]My mind when i sleep
[03:45.13]And the lovesick rejections
[03:47.61]That accompany the company i keep
[03:55.06]All the razor perceptions
[03:57.58]That cut just a little too deep
[04:04.71]Hey i can bleed as well as anyone
[04:07.54]But i need someone to help me sleep
[04:15.09]So i throw my hand into the air
[04:18.54]And it swims in the beams
[04:24.75]It's just a brief interruption of the swirling
[04:28.62]Dust sparkle jet stream
[04:35.20]Well i know i don't know you
[04:37.84]And you're probably not what you seem
[04:45.05]But i'd sure like to find out
[04:47.35]So why don't you climb down off
[04:49.69]That movie screen
[04:55.73]Hey mrs potter don't turn
[05:00.78]Hey mrs potter i burn for you
[05:05.80]Hey mrs potter won't you talk to me
[05:20.35]When the last king of hollywood shatters
[05:23.93]His glass on the floor
[05:30.58]And orders another
[05:32.93]Well i wonder what he did that for
[05:40.37]That's when i know that i have to get out
[05:43.06]Cause i have been there before
[05:50.33]So i gave up my seat at the bar
[05:53.70]And i head for the door
[05:59.93]We drove out to the desert
[06:02.65]Just to lie down beneath
[06:04.29]This bowl of stars
[06:10.19]We stand up in the palace
[06:12.43]Like it's the last of the great pioneer town bars
[06:19.89]We shout out these songs
[06:22.48]Against the clang of electric guitars
[06:30.26]You can see a million miles tonight
[06:33.11]But you can't get very far
[06:39.92]Oh you can see a million miles tonight
[06:43.06]But you can't get very far
[06:50.88]Hey mrs potter i won't touch
[06:55.82]Hey mrs potter it's not much but
[07:00.86]Hey mrs potter won't you talk to me
[07:10.93]Hey mrs potter won't you talk to me
[07:20.92]Hey mrs potter won't you talk to me
