  • 作词 : Vega
    作曲 : Suzanne Vega
    the reproach in your daughter's most beautiful face
    made me wonder just how she could know
    of that something that happened between you and me
    so much more than a long time ago

    her mother, I can see, lives within her still
    cause she looked at me with her eyes
    though I had only just met her right then
    I feel that she peeled back my guilty disguise

    did i break the thread, or did you break the thread?
    well at this point we could ask who cares
    as for the promises broken and frayed
    it's 19 years late for repairs

    the grey pewter vase held the deep red rose,

    one piece of coral shone white,
    by the brass candlestick near your red velvet coat,

    is everything I can recall of one night

    will you please tell me why I remember these things
    after all of this time, I don't know

    i must have left all those feelings inside
    cause that year I had no courage to show

    was i the name you could never pronounce?
    or did i even figure at all?
    all of this happened before she was born
    did i shadow her young pencil marks on the wall
    still i am sure i was only but one
    of a number who darkened that door

    of your home and your hearth and your family and wife
    who'd been darkened so often before

    oh, the red leaf looks to the hard gray stone
    to each other, they know what they mean
    somewhere, their future is still yet to come
    in ways that are yet as of now unforeseen
