Barcelona — текст песни (Rufus Wainwright)

The summer sun sets a vicious circus
when shadows held the world in place
But today I felt a chill in my apartment`s
coolest place
Fuggi Regal Fantasima
The village larks cannot be heard
`cause all the crows got panderers
I can`t escape these velvet drapes,
don`t want my rings to fall off
my fingers
Fuggi Regal Fantasima

The mirror I find hard to face
`Cause I fear its a long way down

Got to get away from here, I think I know
which hemisphere
Crazy me don`t think there`s pain in Barcelona
They dance you `round a waltz confound
But I fear it`s a long way down
Even if that straw I pull
and I got to fight that bull
Nothing really compares to Barcelona
Besides in Spain Don Juan`s to blame
But I fear it`s a long way down
And I fear I won`t be around
Make sure I have all my papers
laying out my summer clothes
Search for traps in vain like scratching
so my suitcase I can close
Fuggi Regal Fantasima
