Lyrics and translation Barry Manilow - Joey - Unreleased demo




Joey - Unreleased demo
Joey - Démo inédite
Somewhere a band in a bistro
Quelque part, un groupe dans un bistrot
Is soothing a lazy old song
Apaise une vieille chanson paresseuse
And, Joey, you're probably calling the waiter
Et, Joey, tu appelles probablement le serveur
To say that they're playing it wrong
Pour dire qu'ils la jouent mal
Roaming the streets after classes
Errants dans les rues après les cours
We talked about honor and fame
Nous avons parlé d'honneur et de gloire
You wearing the cares of the world on your back
Tu portais les soucis du monde sur ton dos
Like the badge from the varsity games
Comme le badge des matchs universitaires
Was it so long ago?
Est-ce que c'était il y a si longtemps ?
If I knew the number I'd call
Si je connaissais le numéro, j'appellerais
Joey, has life had a few good surprises for you
Joey, la vie t'a-t-elle réservé de bonnes surprises
Since the days when we wanted it all?
Depuis les jours nous voulions tout ?
How did we ever get older?
Comment avons-nous pu vieillir ?
So crazy with nerve and despair?
Si fous avec du courage et du désespoir ?
Thrown with the rest to the worst and the best
Jetés avec le reste vers le pire et le meilleur
And I'm glad that we had it to share
Et je suis content que nous ayons eu ça à partager
Maybe you're marching forever
Peut-être marches-tu éternellement
Still wild with your heart on your sleeve
Toujours sauvage avec ton cœur sur ta manche
Denouncing the world to a cluster of girls
Dénonçant le monde à un groupe de filles
All eager to swear they believe
Toutes désireuses de jurer qu'elles croient
Was it so long ago?
Est-ce que c'était il y a si longtemps ?
Was it really the battle, it seemed?
Était-ce vraiment la bataille, il me semblait ?
Joey, the quest for the truth went along with my youth
Joey, la quête de la vérité allait de pair avec ma jeunesse
And it's too late to live without dreams
Et il est trop tard pour vivre sans rêves
Was it so long ago?
Est-ce que c'était il y a si longtemps ?
If I knew the number I'd call
Si je connaissais le numéro, j'appellerais
Joey, has life had a few good surprises for you
Joey, la vie t'a-t-elle réservé de bonnes surprises
Since the days when we wanted it all?
Depuis les jours nous voulions tout ?
