Joan Baez - Michael

Tekst :


In the time spent in the foggy dew
With the raven and the dove
Barefoot she walked the winter streets
In search of her own true love

For she was Mary Hamilton
And lover of John Riley
And the maid of constant sorrow
And the mother of the doomed Geordie

One day by the banks of the river
Midst tears and gossamer
Sweet Michael rowed his boat ashore
And came to rescue her

And fill thee up my loving cup
Fast and to the brim
How many fair and tender maids
Could love as she could then?

For was was likened to Pretty Boy Floyd
And also John Riley
And a rake and rambling railroad boy
And the Silkie of the Sule Skerry

And there in the arms of Michael
In their stolen hour
Loud rang the bells of Rhymney
From the ancient church bell tower

And there in the night with Michael
While he lay fast asleep
She put her head to the window pane
And in the fullness of love did weep

And fill thee up my loving cup
Fast and to the brim
How many fair and tender maids
Will love as she did then?

You ve heard of the House of the Rising Sun
And what careless love can do
You ve heard of the wildwood flower
That fades in the morning dew

And of the ship that circles three times round
And sinks beneath the sea
You ve heard of Barbary Allen
And now you ve heard of me

So fill thee up my loving cup
Fast and to the brim
How many fair and tender maids
Will ever love again?

    Give one heart

    Love I am told is the deepest mystery
    Harder to fathom than any sea
    More precious than all the earth and sky
    But nobody can tell you why

    Give one heart
    Get back two
    That s the paradox of I love you
    So when you give your heart
    You get one too
    That s the paradox of I love...

    Zdobyć świat

    Tak, to ja
    To wszystko
    Co w życiu wygrałem - mam
    Bo wiem: na sukces
    Trzeba dużo siły
    Mieć nie znaczy tylko być
    Udowodnić mogę dziś

    Bo ja, wiem że walczyć mam
    Zdobędę cały świat
    Niepokorny tak
    Zdobędę Ciebie

    Tak, ten sam, na zawsze
    Nie zmieni mnie nic
    Choć sam, jak stal
    To serce wie, że pragnie Ciebie
    Mieć nie znaczy tylko być
    Udowodnić mogę Ci

    Że...

    No more war

    No more war please
    No more destruction of innocent life
    No more living in fear
    No more on our bended knees
    To live is our right

    No more war
    No more war please
    It s got to stop oh we ve got to make it stop

    No more money for...

    Honest lullaby

    Early early in the game
    I taught myself to sing and play
    And use a little trickery
    On kids who never favored me
    Those were years of crinoline slips
    And cotton skirts and swinging hips
    And dangerously painted lips
    And stars of stage and screen
    Pedal pushers, ankle socks
    Padded bras and campus jocks
    Who hid their vernal equinox
    In pairs...
