《The Last Time I Saw Richard》歌词

[00:00:00] The Last Time I Saw Richard - Clare Maguire (克蕾儿麦奎尔)

[00:00:33] The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in 68

[00:00:39] And he told me all romantics meet the same fate someday

[00:00:49] Cynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafe

[00:01:05] You laugh he said you think you're immune

[00:01:11] Go look at your eyes they're full of moon

[00:01:19] You like roses and kisses and pretty men to tell you

[00:01:25] All those pretty lies pretty lies

[00:01:39] When you gonna realize they're only pretty lies

[00:01:48] Only pretty lies just pretty lies

[00:02:16] He put a quarter in the Wurlitzer

[00:02:22] And he pushed three buttons and the thing began to whirr

[00:02:29] And a bar maid came by in fishnet stockings and a bow tie

[00:02:34] And she said drink up now it's getting on time to close

[00:02:46] Richard you haven't really changed I said

[00:02:52] It's just that now you're romanticizing some pain that's in your head

[00:03:00] You got tombs in your eyes but the songs you punched are dreaming

[00:03:07] Listen they sing of love so sweet love so sweet

[00:03:19] When you gonna go get yourself back on your feet

[00:03:25] Oh love can be so sweet love so sweet

[00:03:54] Richard got married to a figure skater

[00:04:01] And he bought her a dishwasher and a coffee percolator

[00:04:08] And he drinks at home most nights with the TV on

[00:04:14] And all the house lights left up bright

[00:04:24] I'm gonna blow this damn candle out

[00:04:30] I don't want nobody coming over to my table

[00:04:34] I got nothing to talk to anybody about

[00:04:39] All good dreamers pass this way some day

[00:04:44] Hiding behind bottles in dark cafes dark cafes

[00:04:58] Only a dark cocoon before I get my gorgeous wings and fly away

[00:05:08] So only a phase these dark cafe days
