The Last Time I Saw Richard
Joni Mitchell
The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in '68
And he told me all romantics meet the same fate someday
Cynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafe
You laugh, he said you think you're immune, go look at your eyes
They're full of moon
You like roses and kisses and pretty men to tell you
All those pretty lies, pretty lies
When you gonna realize they're only pretty lies
Only pretty lies, just pretty lies
He put a quarter in the Wurlitzer, and he pushed
Three buttons and the thing began to whir
And a bar maid came by in fishnet stockings and a bow tie
And she said drink up now it's gettin' on time to close
Richard, you haven't really changed, I said
It's just that now you're romanticizing some pain that's in your head
You got tombs in your eyes, but the songs
You punched are dreaming
Listen, they sing of love so sweet, love so sweet
When you gonna get yourself back on your feet?
Oh and love can be so sweet, love so sweet
Richard got married to a figure skater
And he bought her a dishwasher and a coffee percolator
And he drinks at home now most nights with the TV on
And all the house lights left up bright
I'm gonna blow this damn candle out
I don't want nobody comin' over to my table
I got nothing to talk to anybody about
All good dreamers pass this way some day
Hidin' behind bottles in dark cafes
Dark cafes
Only a dark cocoon before I get my gorgeous wings
And fly away
Only a phase, these dark cafe days
The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in '68
La dernière fois que j'ai vu Richard, c'était à Detroit en '68
And he told me all romantics meet the same fate someday
Et il m'a dit que tous les romantiques rencontrent le même sort un jour
Cynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafe
Cynique et ivre et ennuyant quelqu'un dans un sombre café
You laugh, he said you think you're immune, go look at your eyes
Tu ris, il a dit que tu penses être immunisé, regarde tes yeux
They're full of moon
Ils sont pleins de lune
You like roses and kisses and pretty men to tell you
Tu aimes les roses et les baisers et les beaux hommes pour te dire
All those pretty lies, pretty lies
Tous ces jolis mensonges, jolis mensonges
When you gonna realize they're only pretty lies
Quand vas-tu réaliser qu'ils ne sont que de jolis mensonges
Only pretty lies, just pretty lies
Seulement de jolis mensonges, juste de jolis mensonges
He put a quarter in the Wurlitzer, and he pushed
Il a mis un quart dans le Wurlitzer, et il a appuyé
Three buttons and the thing began to whir
Sur trois boutons et la chose a commencé à tourner
And a bar maid came by in fishnet stockings and a bow tie
Et une serveuse est passée en bas résille et nœud papillon
And she said drink up now it's gettin' on time to close
Et elle a dit bois maintenant, il est temps de fermer
Richard, you haven't really changed, I said
Richard, tu n'as pas vraiment changé, ai-je dit
It's just that now you're romanticizing some pain that's in your head
C'est juste que maintenant tu romantises une douleur qui est dans ta tête
You got tombs in your eyes, but the songs
Tu as des tombes dans tes yeux, mais les chansons
You punched are dreaming
Que tu as jouées sont en train de rêver
Listen, they sing of love so sweet, love so sweet
Écoute, elles chantent d'un amour si doux, d'un amour si doux
When you gonna get yourself back on your feet?
Quand vas-tu te remettre sur pied ?
Oh and love can be so sweet, love so sweet
Oh et l'amour peut être si doux, l'amour si doux

And he drinks at home now most nights with the TV on
Et il boit à la maison maintenant presque tous les soirs avec la télé allumée
And all the house lights left up bright
Et toutes les lumières de la maison allumées
I'm gonna blow this damn candle out
Je vais éteindre cette foutue bougie
I don't want nobody comin' over to my table
Je ne veux personne qui vienne à ma table
I got nothing to talk to anybody about
Je n'ai rien à dire à personne
All good dreamers pass this way some day
Tous les bons rêveurs passent par ici un jour
Hidin' behind bottles in dark cafes
Se cachant derrière des bouteilles dans des cafés sombres
Dark cafes
Cafés sombres
Only a dark cocoon before I get my gorgeous wings
Juste un sombre cocon avant que je n'obtienne mes magnifiques ailes
And fly away
Et que je m'envole
Only a phase, these dark cafe days
Juste une phase, ces jours de café sombre
The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in '68

Apenas lindas mentiras, apenas lindas mentiras

E uma garçonete passou de meias arrastão e gravata borboleta
And she said drink up now it's gettin' on time to close
E ela disse beba agora, está na hora de fechar
Richard, you haven't really changed, I said
Richard, você realmente não mudou, eu disse
It's just that now you're romanticizing some pain that's in your head
É só que agora você está romantizando alguma dor que está na sua cabeça
You got tombs in your eyes, but the songs
Você tem túmulos nos seus olhos, mas as músicas
You punched are dreaming
Que você tocou estão sonhando
Listen, they sing of love so sweet, love so sweet
Escute, elas cantam de um amor tão doce, amor tão doce
When you gonna get yourself back on your feet?
Quando você vai se reerguer?
Oh and love can be so sweet, love so sweet
Oh e o amor pode ser tão doce, amor tão doce
