[00:00.10]Aftertones (worktape) - Janis Ian
[00:00.91]Lyrics by：Janis Ian
[00:01.70]Composed by：Janis Ian
[00:32.46]Sometimes it's all too much to say aloud
[00:38.73]The sound's a shroud
[00:42.43]The meanings crowd
[00:46.52]Sometimes the words are painful to the ear
[00:53.23]They disappear and nothing's clear
[01:01.37]Till all that's left to me are aftertones
[01:07.32]I take them home
[01:11.07]We live alone
[01:15.54]But I remember chains of melody
[01:21.94]It pleases me this song's for free
[01:33.42]Within the memories of our life gone by
[01:39.46]Afraid to die we learn to lie
[01:47.16]And measure out the time in coffee spoons
[01:53.60]In fading suns and dying moons
[02:01.49]Till all that's left to see are aftertones
[02:07.94]Don't gone over us
[02:11.21]Where meaning goes
[02:15.86]But I remember chains of melody
[02:21.89]It pleases me this song's for free
[02:32.85]And ooh I like the sound
[02:38.48]Of harmony from time to time
[02:46.80]I really do believe
[02:52.44]In some kind of tomorrow
[02:56.05]When it speaks to me
