Luyện nghe bài hát Murmansk Run/Ellis Island

Your father sailed on the run
To the flocks of the ships home one by one
beneath the Arctic sun
Or the glow of Lights

I see you his photograph
His eyes are watching for fore or aft
Trading days the sun
For the cold and wintry nights of the run

He never did come to you
long forgotten, a childhood dream or two
But of the cold got through
And it lingers in eyes

On days like you hear the wind
And feel the of the ice floes closing in
Trading days the sun
For the cold and wintry of the Murmansk run

Save our souls, river of over me
Save our souls, lost on the dark sea

Now you yourself from view
You seem to it an easy thing to do
Trading days the sun
For the cold and wintry nights of the run

our souls, river of darkness over me
Save our souls, lost on the dark sea

you wake up in the morning on Hester street
And run to the factory, You can't to be late
Working every morning, every evening, day
For your money, Yet there's nothing to

your life pass by the window
Feeling it all run through hands
Counting the thousands behind in the
Waiting time for their

Ellis Island, day after day
From Ellis Island, dreams away

Meanwhile from the market the cries
Of every tongue and every
refugees
Faces from the endless plains of
Norwegian, dark Croatian
Songs in sad keys
the heat inside the fumace
Trying to make break away
Reaching their for a grip
On the edge just to slip again

From Ellis Island, day day
From Island, dreams slip away

Ah I've heard it said
If you just use head
You can make your fortune
One lucky break and that's all it would

But it never seems to be
Another day, another ship into harbor
And the crowd spills the gangway
Clutching their suitcases

in the sunlight at the door of the new world
They hold the
all the post thrown behind
Caught in between now and
Wondering what lies ahead
Each one is and hoping
The door will be to them

On Ellis Island, day day
On Ellis Island, slips away

From Ellis Island, day day
Ellis Island, dreams slip away

Save our souls, river of over me
Save our souls, lost on the dark sea
