That Was the Day (Nashville) — текст песни (Marianne Faithfull)

Going home in a trailer filled with Canada Dry,
Looking forward to being with you.
Got in to the broadway and what do I find ?
Some lady`s been sleeping there, too.

I was dreamin` of our meetin` all down the M1
`Cause I hadn`t seen you for so long.
Then out of the blue, something came down and warned me
And I sat there and wrote down this song.

That was the day that the coke came to Nashville,
That was the day I laughed till I cried.
That was the day all my dreams turned to ashes
And I lost my blues and I smiled.

Well, I walked in the door and I heard you two laughing,
Just like I`d hoped that we`d do.
So I went up the stairs, left your keys on the table,
And I wrote on the mirror, `We`re through!`.

That was the day that the coke came to Nashville,
That was the day that I had, honey.
That was the day that the coke came to Nashville,
And I`ve got the blues out just bad.

Going home on a train, going back to my mother,
Feeling better already, keep telling myself:
`Don`t you cry, you`ll forget him and find a new lover,
So let`s sit back and drink to his health.`

That was the day that the coke came to Nashville,
That was the day I laughed till I cried.
That was the day that I felt my heart breaking,
Ain`t it funny, after all I`ve survived.
Ain`t it funny, after all I`ve survived.
