《The Comedian》歌词

[00:00:02] roy orbison - the comedians

[00:00:06] album: the essential roy orbison

[00:00:21] i sat there alone upon the ferris wheel

[00:00:27] a pastel colored carriage in the air

[00:00:33] i thought you'd leave me dangling for a little while

[00:00:39] a silly twist upon a childish dare

[00:00:46] below i saw you whispering to another man

[00:00:52] who held the lever that could bring me down

[00:00:58] he'd stop the world from turning at your command

[00:01:05] it's always something cruel that laughter drowns

[00:01:11] and i'm up while the dawn is breaking

[00:01:14] even though my heart is aching

[00:01:17] i should be drinking a toast to absent friends

[00:01:26] instead of these comedians

[00:01:48] i can hardly hear the music from the carousel

[00:01:55] the wind picks up, the carriage starts sway

[00:02:01] as one by one the lights go out, it's closing time

[00:02:07] i see you take his hand and walk away, walk away

[00:02:33] they say that you will always be the last to know

[00:02:39] they say that all that glitters is not gold

[00:02:45] it's not just that you're never coming back to me

[00:02:52] it's the bitter way that i was told

[00:02:57] and i'm up while the dawn is breaking

[00:03:01] even though my heart is aching

[00:03:04] i should be drinking a toast to absent friends

[00:03:13] instead of these comedians
