Joni Mitchell - The Last Time I Saw Richard слова песни
The last time I saw richard was detroit in 68,And he told me all romantics meet the same fate somedayCynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafeYou laugh, he said you think youre immune, go look at your eyesTheyre full of moonYou like roses and kisses and pretty men to tell youAll those pretty lies, pretty liesWhen you gonna realise theyre only pretty liesOnly pretty lies, just pretty liesHe put a quarter in the wurlitzer, and he pushedThree buttons and the thing began to whirrAnd a bar maid came by in fishnet stockings and a bow tieAnd she said "drink up now its gettin on time to close.""richard, you havent really changed," I saidIts just that now youre romanticizing some pain thats in your headYou got tombs in your eyes, but the songsYou punched are dreamingListen, they sing of love so sweet, love so sweetWhen you gonna get yourself back on your feet? Oh and love can be so sweet, love so sweetRichard got married to a figure skaterAnd he bought her a dishwasher and a coffee percolatorAnd he drinks at home now most nights with the tv onAnd all the house lights left up brightIm gonna blow this damn candle outI dont want nobody comin over to my tableI got nothing to talk to anybody aboutAll good dreamers pass this way some dayHidin behind bottles in dark cafesDark cafesOnly a dark cocoon before I get my gorgeous wingsAnd fly awayOnly a phase, these dark cafe days
