  • 作曲 : Avett Brothers
    I found a flower in a field
    A field of cars and people,
    Rows of concrete, paint, and steel
    Manhattan is where it grew
    And I thought, to cut it from its stem
    And take it from the cracks
    Between bricks that it lay in
    And save it from city strife
    Away from the city life
    Then someone, they whispered in my ear
    A county girl can't be made out of anybody here
    Don't touch it, it loves you not
    Don't touch it, it loves you not
    Cause blue birds,
    Don't fly without their wings
    And when we put them in a cage
    The world can't hear them sing
    So selfish when greed sets in
    Possession, the king of sin
    And people don't ever let you down
    Forever find a way to kill whatever love they've found
    A heart beat and
    I want it too
    Manhattan is where she grew
    So I left and
    I let the flower be
    And yesterday saw the flower on cable
    TVMuch prettier than here with me
    For all of the world to see
    Much prettier than here with me
