The Last Time I Saw Richard - Clare Maguire (克蕾儿麦奎尔)[00:00:00]
The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in 68[00:00:33]
And he told me all romantics meet the same fate someday[00:00:39]
Cynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafe[00:00:49]
You laugh he said you think you're immune[00:01:05]
Go look at your eyes they're full of moon[00:01:11]
You like roses and kisses and pretty men to tell you[00:01:19]
All those pretty lies pretty lies[00:01:25]
When you gonna realize they're only pretty lies[00:01:39]
Only pretty lies just pretty lies[00:01:48]
He put a quarter in the Wurlitzer[00:02:16]
And he pushed three buttons and the thing began to whirr[00:02:22]
And a bar maid came by in fishnet stockings and a bow tie[00:02:29]
And she said drink up now it's getting on time to close[00:02:34]
Richard you haven't really changed I said[00:02:46]
It's just that now you're romanticizing some pain that's in your head[00:02:52]
You got tombs in your eyes but the songs you punched are dreaming[00:03:00]
Listen they sing of love so sweet love so sweet[00:03:07]
When you gonna go get yourself back on your feet[00:03:19]
Oh love can be so sweet love so sweet[00:03:25]
Richard got married to a figure skater[00:03:54]
And he bought her a dishwasher and a coffee percolator[00:04:01]
And he drinks at home most nights with the TV on[00:04:08]
And all the house lights left up bright[00:04:14]
I'm gonna blow this damn candle out[00:04:24]
I don't want nobody coming over to my table[00:04:30]
I got nothing to talk to anybody about[00:04:34]
All good dreamers pass this way some day[00:04:39]
Hiding behind bottles in dark cafes dark cafes[00:04:44]
Only a dark cocoon before I get my gorgeous wings and fly away[00:04:58]
So only a phase these dark cafe days[00:05:08]
