[00:00.41]The Changing Lights - Stacey Kent
[00:01.81]Written by：Kazuo Ishiguro/Jim Tomlinson
[00:28.38]Were we leaving Rio
[00:31.09]Or were we in New York
[00:34.22]I remember bossa nova on the breeze
[00:41.94]We were in the back seat
[00:44.37]Of a cab we couldn't afford
[00:47.56]You were holding my old rucksack on your knees
[00:54.66]You leaned towards your window
[00:57.27]To see the traffic up ahead
[01:01.64]These commuters here you said
[01:04.74]Could be the walking dead
[01:11.49]And we vowed to guard our dreams
[01:14.58]From all the storms that lay ahead
[01:18.00]From the winds of fear and age and compromise
[01:24.94]And we laughed about the hopelessness
[01:28.24]Of so many peoples lives
[01:31.46]As we slowly moved towards the changing lights
[01:52.82]It was near Les Invalides
[01:55.30]Or perhaps Trafalgar Square
[01:58.69]It was late at night the city was asleep
[02:06.31]You were clowning in the back seat
[02:08.74]With some friends we'd found somewhere
[02:12.45]The kind back then we always seemed to meet
[02:19.03]There were those in this great world you said
[02:22.39]Just fated to go far
[02:26.27]And among the lucky ones
[02:29.55]Were we inside that car
[02:35.92]And your friends began to sing
[02:38.65]When you wish upon a star
[02:42.59]And you clapped along like you didn't have a care
[02:49.43]But once I turned to glance at you
[02:52.68]As we drove across the square
[02:56.29]And your face looked haunted in the changing lights
[03:51.20]Was it last September
[03:53.68]It was autumn more or less
[03:57.07]You were waiting to cross some busy boulevard
[04:04.65]Talking on your phone
[04:07.08]To your family I guess
[04:10.72]Your briefcase tucked up high beneath your arm
[04:17.25]As I approached you turned around
[04:20.83]A question in your eye
[04:24.30]As though I might ignore you
[04:27.48]And just simply walk on by
[04:36.41]But we smiled and talked awhile
[04:41.27]About each others lives
[04:44.53]And once or twice I caught a wistful note
[04:51.05]Then you moved towards the crossing
[04:54.45]As the cars slowed to a halt
[04:59.77]And we waved and parted beneath the changing lights
[05:28.32]And we waved and parted beneath the changing lights
