Stephanie`s Room — текст песни (Joan Baez)

(Words and Music by Joan Baez)


"You`ve loved me exquisitely."
"I tried to."
"Can we be best of friends now?"
"I never lied to you."
"And can I love you forever?"
"Sure," she said and smiled
"But will you?"

I wish there was some new way
To sing about a full moon
Poured down on us like a thousand rivers
In Stephanie`s room
And you said you`d remember always
The shadows on the hills below us
But will you?

You never once tried to sell me
A bill of goods I wouldn`t buy
But I`m seasoned and I know a pirate
By the devil in his eye
And the only thing you ever stole from me
Was laughter and some love I made
To fill you

White snow in the morning
Kind of frightened me
But you`d go sailing anyway
Things are different at sea
You know I`ll never try and change your habit
As sure as you know if your ship sinks
It`ll kill you

And all the lovely ladies who came before me
Are very much the same
As the others soon to follow
In your merry little game
I guess I just want to be remembered
Especially and frequently
Like Stephanie

Five red tail hawks are circling
Above us in the sky
You said they`d bring good luck
And then you said goodbye
You smiled and said, "I`ll see you
Sooner than you think."
But will you?
