Jamaica Say You Will

Jamaica Say You Will - Jackson Browne (傑克遜·布朗)

Jamaica was the lovely one

I played her well

As we lay in the tall grass

Where the shadows fell

Hiding from the children

So they would not tell

We would stay there 'till her sister

Rang the evening bell

Jamaica say you will

Help me find a way to

Fill these empty hours

Say you will come again tomorrow

The daughter of a captain

On the rolling seas

She would stare across the water

From the trees

Last time he was home

He held her on his knees

And said the next time

They would sail away

Just where they pleased

Jamaica say you will

Help me find a way to fill

These lifeless sails

And stay until my ships can

Find the sea

Jamaica was a sweet young one

I loved her true

She was a comfort and a mercy

Through and through

Hiding from this world together

Next thing I knew

We had brought her things

Down to the bay

What could I do

Jamaica say you will

Help me find a way to

Fill these sails

And we will sail until our

Waters have run dry
