Albert’s Place歌词完整版
With head bowed low she walks on through her city
As the rain seeps through the only coat she owns
But on High Street West there’s a place, a place she knows
Some days it won’t take much at all
You can fall down just a semi tone
But it’s enough to make you fold and break your soul
And Albert’s Place has seen it all
The meat and coal when the big ships called
But maybe now it’s greatest day of all
Brings tea, in a cup of love, tea, in a cup of love
See the pensioner and the veteran
The unemployed, the homeless, and the lost
The abused, misused, refused, gathered here
But you’d be surprised at who’s beside you
A businessman just wants to feed his kids
A nurse ashamed to cross that line, but arms welcome her
And Albert’s Place has seen it all
The meat and coal when the big ships called
But maybe now it’s greatest day of all
Brings tea, in a cup of love, tea, in a cup of love
It’s tattooed across his forearm
It’s a promise set in skin
Of the days that tried to destroy him, but Albert let him in
Room at the inn
And the measure of a country’s prosperity
Is not the wealth that it holds
But in the absence of poverty, and equal opportunity, for us all
And Albert’s Place has seen it all
The meat and coal and the big ships tall
But maybe now it’s greatest moment of all
Brings tea, in a cup of love
Clothes, in a cup of love
Shelter and furniture, in a cup of love
Humanity, in a cup of love
With head bowed low she walks on through her city
As the rain seeps through the only coat she owns
But on High Street West there’s a place, a place she knows
