Joni Mitchell - CHINESE CAFE/UNCHAINED MELODY слова песни
Caught in the middleCarol, we`re middle classWe`re middle agedWe were wild in the old daysBirth of rock `n roll daysNow your kids are coming up straightAnd my child`s a strangerI bore herBut, I could not raise herNothing lasts for long--Nothing lasts for long--Nothing lasts for long--Down at the Chinese CafeWe`d be dreaming on our dimesWe`d be playing-- "Oh my love, my darling"One more timeUranium moneyIs booming in the old home town nowIt`s putting up sleek concreteTearing the old landmarks down nowPaving over brave little parksRipping off Indian land againHow long--how longShort sighted business menAh, nothing lasts for long--Nothing lasts for long--Nothing lasts for long--Down at the Chinese CafeWe`d be dreaming on our dimesWe`d be playing-- "You give your love, so sweetly"One more timeChristmas is sparklingOut on Carol`s lawnThis girl of my childhood gamesWith kids nearly grown and goneGrown so fastLike the turn of a pageWe look like our mothers did nowWhen we were those kids` ageNothing lasts for long--Nothing lasts for long--Nothing lasts for long--Down at the Chinese CafeWe`d be dreaming on our dimesWe`d be playing-- "Oh my love, my darling I`ve hungered for your touch A long lonely time And time goes by so slowly And time can do so much Are you still mine? I need your love I need your love God speed your love to me."(Time goes--where does the time go-- I wonder where the time goes. . .)
