Farewell Angelina — текст песни (Jeff Buckley)





(b. dylan)

From wfmus 1993 compilation they came, they played, they blocked the driveway. this song was originally performed by bob dylan and joan baez.



Farewell angelina

The bells of the crown

Are being stolen by bandits

I must follow the sound

The triangle tingles

And the trumpets play slow

Farewell angelina

The sky is on fire

And I must go.



Theres no need for anger

Theres no need for blame

Theres nothing to prove

Evrythings still the same

Just a table standing empty

By the edge of the sea

Farewell angelina

The sky is trembling

And I must leave.



The jacks and the queens

Have forsaked the courtyard

Fifty-two gypsies

Now file past the gaurds

In the space where the deuce

And the ace once ran wild

Farewell angelina

The sky is folding

Ill see you in a while.



See the cross-eyed pirates sitting

Perched in the sun

Shooting tin cans

With a sawed-off shotgun

And the neighbors they clap

And they cheer with each blast

Farewell angelina

The skys changing color

And I must leave fast.



King kong, little elves

On the rooftops they dance

Valentino-type tangos

While the make-up mans hands

Shut the eyes of the dead

Not to embarrass anyone

Farewell angelina

The sky is embarassed

And I must be gone.



The machine guns are roaring

The puppets heave rocks

The fiends nail time bombs

To the hands of the clocks

Call me any name you like

I will never deny it

Farewell angelina

I must go where its quiet.
