[00:00.000] 作曲 : Bruce Springsteen
[00:29.064]He's out of Newark, a retired detective
[00:34.506]Tryna lose some of what he'd seen
[00:39.693]He had twenty-five years on the streets
[00:44.855]Where the Lord does not intervene
[00:49.861]Packed his shaving kit into a small suitcase
[00:54.960]Slipped the rosary off the night shelf
[01:00.387]Just the cross remains of his faith
[01:05.511]Was all that he had left
[01:10.705]And the pale sun of the evening
[01:15.644]Cut through the windshield as he drove
[01:20.969]Head south on the Jersey Turnpike
[01:26.358]To the Lady of Monroe
[01:33.952]He and his wife, they'd raised a daughter
[01:39.201]But his job was all he'd ever really known
[01:44.822]Now she was in southern Indiana
[01:49.840]With a family her own
[01:54.875]As the refinery fields went rushing by
[01:59.844]Thought of his little brown-eyed girl
[02:05.056]Shooting cans in the river with his old .22
[02:10.557]As the summer trees unfurled
[02:15.722]And the pale sun of the evening
[02:21.263]Slipped down, velvet and low
[02:26.322]Heard murmured prayers softly rising
[02:31.501]To the Lady of Monroe
[02:36.208]His rosary hung from the rearview mirror
[02:41.317]A map 'neath the Burger King bag in the front seat
[02:47.083]His gun's tucked deep in the glove box
[02:51.606]Another useless tool of his trade he'll never need
[02:57.341]From his desk in the South precinct
[03:02.524]He'd walked that dirty mile
[03:07.788]Well, that was all over now
[03:12.306]He was gonna learn to live, just to live for a while
[03:18.452]Virgin Mother, give me peace
[03:24.071]Peace I've never known
[03:28.300]In the sunlight, lifted hands softly swaying
[03:34.189]To our Lady of Monroe
