歌词
[Intro - acoustic guitar, reflective mood]
[Verse 1-softly played piano chords join ]
In the glow of the lamp, the pages turn
A young scholar's dreams begin to burn
Countless nights lost, in pursuit of truth
Sacrificed youth, in the quest of academic proof
[Verse 2]
Promises of future, so bright and clear
Shattered hopes, engulfed by fear
The manuscripts pile, the accolades few
A journey of passion, only a scholar knew
[Chorus]
But the halls of knowledge, they don't hear the cries
Of the heart that beats, and the spirit that tries
For all the toil, and all the sacrifice made
The doors of tenure, remain unswayed
[Chorus ]
But the halls of knowledge, they don't hear the cries
Of the heart that beats, and the spirit that tries
For all the toil, and all the sacrifice made
The doors of tenure, remain unswayed
[melody interlude]
[melody interludeacoustic guitar interlude with subtle harmonica notes]
[Bridge- solitary violin ]
In the quiet of the night, the scholar stands alone
Questioning the path, and the seeds unsown
Is the worth of pursuit measured by its end
Or in the lessons learned, and the ability to transcend
[melody interlude-A serene and introspective acoustic guitar interlude, interwoven with subtle, airy harmonica notes, creating a sense of wide open spaces and timeless wonder.]
[outro chorus]
But the halls of knowledge, they don't hear the cries
Of the heart that beats, and the spirit that tries
For all the toil, and all the sacrifice made
The doors of tenure, remain unswayed
[end]
[ chorus]
But the halls of knowledge, they don't hear the cries
Of the heart that beats, and the spirit that tries
For all the toil, and all the sacrifice made
The doors of tenure, remain unswayed
[outro chorus]
But the halls of knowledge, they don't hear the cries
Of the heart that beats, and the spirit that tries
For all the toil, and all the sacrifice made
The doors of tenure, remain unswayed
[fade to end]
