Текст песни Marc Cohn - Ellis Island

Marc Cohn - Ellis Island слова песни




I was driving down Ninth AvenueAs the sky was getting darkDidn`t have nothin` else to doSo I kept on riding to Battery ParkI stepped out in the damp and misty nightAs the fog was rolling inMan said, "Last boat leaving tonightIs the boat for Ellis Island"As my feet touched solid groundI felt a chill run down my spineI could almost hear the soundof thousands pushing through the linesMothers and bewildered wivesthat sailed across the raging seaOthers running for their livesto the land of opportunityDown on Ellis Island"What is this strange paradise?"They must`ve wondered through their cries and moansAfter all they`ve sacrificedTheir faith, their families, friends and homesThen on the Inspection StairsThey were counted out or counted inFrozen while the inspectors staredDown on Ellis IslandNow me I only stumbled inJust to wander around that empty hallWhere someone else`s fate had beenDecided in no time at allAnd cases filled with hats and clothesAnd the belongings of those who journeyed farThey`re strange reminders I supposeOf where we`re from and who we areBut as the boat pulled off the shoreI could see the fog was liftingAnd lights I never seen beforeWere shining down on Ellis IslandShining down on Ellis Island
