歌词
Written by:David Crosby
大卫克劳斯比
I had a king in a tenement castle
我曾有一个国王,他住在“公寓”城堡
近来他喜欢
Lately he's taken
把淡色的墙涂棕
To painting the pastel walls brown
把窗帘拉的低低下垂
轻蔑如同扫帚掸过他的身体
He's taken the curtains down
房间只剩下没有主人的指环
那对恼人的笑声
He's swept with the broom of contempt
怀有恐惧的演员的泪水
却把他的身体清洗得瑕疵不染
And the rooms have an empty ring
我不会再回到那了
你知道我的钥匙无法开启那扇门
He's cleaned with the tears
你知道我们的思绪无法彼此相印
Of an actor
从来不能
Who fears for the laughter's sting
从来不能
我曾有一位国王,他穿着滴水的佩斯利花纹衣裳
I can't go back there anymore
近来他喜欢谈
You know my keys won't fit the door
自己有多么的疯狂和盲目
You know my thoughts don't fit the man
他活在另一个时空中
They never can
当他又开始唱着赞美战争和美酒的歌谣
格子衣服的小姐都会害羞的脸红
They never can
但我不是她们
I had a king dressed in drip dry and paisley
我却喜欢皮衣和蕾丝
我不会再回到那了
Lately he's taken to saying
你知道我的钥匙无法开启那扇门
I'm crazy and blind
你知道我们的思绪无法彼此相印
从来不能
He lives in another time
从来不能
我曾有一位国王,他坐在盐锈马车里
Ladies in gingham still blush
他马上就想载着我
前赴他的国度完婚
While he sings them of wars
可要小心月光的力量哦
那里没有人可谴责
And wine
也没有人相识
当叛徒出现时
But I in my leather and lace
国王还赶在路上
皇后还在树林里
I can never become that kind
直到今年的终点
我不会再回到那了
I can't go back there anymore
你知道我的钥匙无法开启那扇门
You know my keys won't fit the door
你知道我们的思绪无法彼此相印
You know my thoughts don't fit the man
从来不能
They never can
从来不能
从来不能
They never can
从来不能
I had a king in a salt rusted carriage
Who carried me off to
His country for marriage too soon
Beware of the power of moons
There's no one to blame
No there's no one to name
As a traitor here
The kings on the road
And the queens in the grove
Till the end of the year
I can't go back there anymore
You know my keys won't fit the door
You know my thoughts don't fit the man
They never can
They never can
They never can
They never can
