Empires歌詞

[00:04.38]Can you hear the call?
[00:12.26]Do you recall your papa when he sat you on his knee
[00:16.20]Telling you the stories of everything he sees
[00:20.24]Parading other people, how they braved the battlefield
[00:24.12]Taking on an empire, fighting to be free
[00:29.67]
[00:30.26]Oh papa, tell me what you saw
[00:33.06]Tan, tan, tara, can you hear the call?
[00:37.04]Oh papa, I can see it in your eye
[00:40.78]Tan, tan, tara, ba, bap, da, da
[00:44.03]
[00:44.63]Flying out the funnel, crackling on the radio
[00:48.06]Emergency connections on a telephone exchange
[00:52.00]You've reached the operator, what's the reason for your call?
[00:55.54]Can you tell me what's the point in building empty empires now?
[00:57.09]
[01:01.67]Oh papa, tell me what you saw
[01:04.76]Tan, tan, tara, can you hear the call?
[01:08.95]Oh papa, I can see it in your eye
[01:10.99]Tan, tan, tara, ba, bap, da, da
[01:16.04]
[01:16.39]Oh, now, they know that a hundred years ago
[01:19.52]That they would build an empire strong
[01:24.31]Give it time, and these imaginary lines will fade away
[01:29.35]The battle goes around until we find a common ground
[01:32.64]What's the point in building empty empires now?
[01:34.83]
[01:36.88]Oh papa, tell me what you saw
[01:40.51]Tan, tan, tara, can you hear the call?

[01:50.50]
[02:08.45]Oh papa, tell me what you saw
[02:28.39]Tan tan tara, can you hear the call?
[02:32.48]Oh papa, I can see it in your eye
[02:36.47]Tan, tan, tara, ba, bap, da, da
[02:39.56]
[02:40.16]Oh, now, they know that a hundred years ago
[02:43.45]That they would build an empire strong
[02:48.28]Give it time, and these imaginary lines will fade away
[02:52.77]What's the point in building
[02:54.27]What's the point in building
[02:56.11]What's the point in building empty empires now?...
