Shadows And Light歌词

作词 : Joni Mitchell
作曲 : Joni Mitchell
Written by：Joni Mitchell
Every picture has it's shadows
And it has some source of light

Blindness
Blindness and sight

The perils of benefactors
The blessings of parasites

Blindness
Blindness and sight

Threatened by all things
Devil of cruelty

Drawn to all things
Devil of delight

Mythical devil

Of the ever present laws

Governing
Blindness
Blindness and sight

Suntans in reservation dining rooms
Pale miners in their lantern rays

Night night and day

Hostage smiles on presidents

Freedom scribbled in the subway

It's like night

Night and day

Threatened by all things

God of cruelty
Drawn to all things
God of delight

Mythical God
Of the everlasting laws

Governing
Day
Day and night

Critics of all expression

Judges in black and white

Saying it's wrong

Saying it's right

Compelled by prescribed standards

Or some ideals we fight

For wrong
Wrong and right

Threatened by all things

Man of cruelty
Mark of Cain
Drawn to all things
Man of delight
Born again born again
Man of the laws
The ever broken laws

Governing
Wrong
Wrong and right

Governing
Wrong
Wrong and right

Wrong and right
