Lời bài hát

0:58The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in 68
1:02And he told me
1:03All romantics meet the same fate someday
1:07Cynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafe
1:15You laugh he said
1:17You think you're immune
1:18Go look at your eyes they're full of moon
1:22You like roses and kisses and pretty men to tell
1:26You all those pretty lies pretty lies
1:33When you gonna realize they're only pretty lies
1:38Only pretty lies
1:44Just pretty lies
1:55He put a quarter in the wurlitzer
1:59And he pushed three buttons and the thing began to
2:02Whirr
2:03And a bar maid came by in fishnet stockings and
2:06A bow tie
2:07And she said drink up now it's gettin on time
2:10To close
2:12Richard
2:13You haven't really changed I said
2:15It's just that
2:16Now you're romanticizing some pain thats in your head
2:19You got tombs in your eyes but the songs you
2:23Punched are dreaming
2:25Listen
2:25They sing of love so sweet love so sweet
2:31When you gonna get yourself back on your feet
2:36Oh love can be so sweet
2:41Love so sweet
2:52Richard got married to a figure skater
2:55And he bought her a dishwasher
2:58And a coffee percolator and he drinks at home
3:01Now most nights with the T V on
3:03And all the house lights left up bright
3:09I'm gonna blow this d**n candle out
3:12I don't want nobody comin' over to my table
3:15And got none to talk to anybody about
3:17All good dreamers pass this way some day
3:21Hidin' behind bottles
3:23In dark cafes dark cafes
3:27Only a dark cocoon before I get my gorgeous
3:32Wings and fly away
3:34Only a phase
3:37These dark cafe days
The last time I saw Richard was Detroit in 68

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

Richard
You haven't really changed I said
It's just that
Now you're romanticizing some pain thats 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 love can be so sweet
Love so sweet

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
