The Band Played Sweet Marie - Reg Meuross

[00:00.000] 作词 : Reg Meuross
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Reg Meuross
[00:14.44]I bought my love a violin so he could play for me
[00:26.64]I bought my love a violin to calm the waves of the stormy sea
[00:40.68]Though he’d be gone the longest time he’d return again to me
[00:52.68]And every note my darling played
[00:59.29]Took further away my love from me
[01:06.69]My name’s Maria Robinson he called me Sweet Marie
[01:19.29]And that’s the song that all night long my darling boy would play to me
[01:33.26]All through that long remembered night I heard that melody
[01:45.50]And the notes he played while the few were saved
[01:52.16]Took further away my love from me
[02:14.04]That ship went down to the mournful sound of my sweetheart’s violin
[02:26.53]With no safety vest he strapped to his chest the case he’d placed it gently in
[02:40.32]And the icy water froze his breath but it never froze his heart
[02:52.92]By the song he played a pact was made my love and I would never part
[03:33.65]I bought my love a violin so he could play for me
[03:46.10]I bought my love a violin to calm the waves of a stormy sea
[04:00.15]There are those who say Wallace Hartley played ‘Nearer my God to thee’
[04:12.63]But our souls were bound as that great ship went down
[04:23.17]And in my heart the band played ‘Sweet Marie’
[04:33.84]In my heart the band played ‘Sweet Marie’
