Текст песни Good Life of Song - Glen Hansard

Well, I call this room to order
Gather round now and hear my song
If you're drunk or at its border
Listen well, this won't take long
There's no doubting fortune's favour
When it tells you you're the one
But may the real fruits of your labour
Be sown by you alone
Oh, good life of singing
Good life of song
Won't you grant us our full measure
When our day is done
Oh, good wine and winning
Good nights so long
Won't you ease us through our toiling
The road is very long
After long weeks in the corner
Where the wine won't make you drunk
But you held your place with honour
Among the bards and the troubadours
This is no roaming lamentation
No ode to those who've gone
But a joyful incantation
To the road we've come upon
Oh, good life of singing
Good life of song
Won't you ease us through our toiling
The road is very long
Oh, good wine and winning
Good nights so long
Won't you grant us our full measure
For now we must go on
Must go on
Good life of singing
Good life of song
Good life of singing
Good life of song
Good life of singing
Good life of song
Go tell it on the mountain
Let them know we passed this way
Let them see we came as equals
Let them know we weren't afraid
And they'll feel your love of music
In every note you play
Well, it leaves you if you don't use it
Don't let it slip away
Oh, good life of singing
Good life of song
How you granted us our measure
When our work was done
Oh, good days of drinking
Good nights so long
How you eased us through our toiling
For now we must go on
Must go on
Good life of singing
Good life of song
Good life of singing
Good life of song
Good life of singing
Good life of song
Good life of singing
Good life so long
