My Father （的父亲）-Nina Simone （娜·西蒙） My father always promised me That we would live in France We'd go boating on the seine And I would learn to dance We lived in Ohio then He worked in the mines On his dreams like boats we knew We would sail in time in time My sisters are went away To Denver and Cheyenne Marrying their grownup dreams The lilacs and the man I stayed behind the youngest still And I danced alone Hoping of my fathers dreams Someday take me home take me home And I live in Paris now My children dance and sing Words of a miners tongue Language they've never sing I sail my memories of home Like boats across the Seine And watch my fathers eyes watch the setting sun It sets in my fathers eyes again
