英文乡村歌曲：Rosie Thomas - Really Long Year

Yeah it's been a really long year
Flew to Oklahoma
That's where he got down on one knee
When I told my mom she was in tears
The day we pulled out her wedding gown
She hadn't looked at it in 40 years
And I, I watched her reminisce for awhile
Just 19 and walking down the aisle¹
.
Yeah it's been a really long year
Made new friends in Kansas
Watched my grandpa be an auctioneer
Brother made that farm look like a dream
The marching band played in the parade
And all the bridesmaids in the trolley² waved
And I, I watched their faces for some time
And somewhere over that rainbow was my life
.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Over the rainbow
Skies will be blue
Somewhere over the rainbow
Over the rainbow
Dreams do come true
.
Yeah it's been a really long year
Laura had a baby boy while I was travelling in Germany
Mother lost her friend in summertime
Before she went to be with the Lord
She told my brother she'd find him a wife
And I, when I heard that story how I cried
Cuz I could hear the longing³ in his voice
I could see the hope in his eyes
Yeah, I could see him dancing with his bride
.
Yeah it's been a really long year
Never thought that I would see the day
I'd dance with grandpa on my wedding day
