Lyrics and translation Crystal Gayle - Cage the Songbird




Cage the Songbird
Cage the Songbird
Sober in the morning light
Sobre dans la lumière du matin
Things look so much different
Les choses semblent si différentes
To how they looked last night
De ce qu'elles semblaient hier soir
A pale face pressed to an unmade bed
Un visage pâle appuyé sur un lit non fait
Like flags of many nations
Comme des drapeaux de nombreuses nations
Flying high above her head
Volant haut au-dessus de sa tête
The cellophane is still on the flowers
La cellophane est toujours sur les fleurs
The telegram still in her hand
Le télégramme est toujours dans sa main
As whispers circulate all day
Alors que les murmures circulent toute la journée
Their backstage baby princess passed away
Leur princesse bébé de coulisses est décédée
You can cage the songbird
Tu peux mettre l'oiseau chanteur en cage
But you can't make her sing
Mais tu ne peux pas la faire chanter
You can trap the free bird
Tu peux piéger l'oiseau libre
But you'll have to clip her wings
Mais tu devras lui couper les ailes
'Cause she'll soar like a hawk when she flies
Parce qu'elle planera comme un faucon quand elle volera
But she'll die like an eagle
Mais elle mourra comme un aigle
When she die
Quand elle mourra
Promises of no more lies
Des promesses de plus de mensonges
Fell flat upon an empty stage
Sont tombées à plat sur une scène vide
Before the audience arrived
Avant que le public n'arrive
A return in time to the cheaper seats
Un retour dans le temps aux sièges moins chers
She never knew what lay beneath
Elle n'a jamais su ce qui se cachait en dessous
Just a dated handbill they found beneath the sheets
Juste un dépliant daté qu'ils ont trouvé sous les draps
Let down before the final curtain
Laissée tomber avant le rideau final
The shallow heart that left her cold
Le cœur superficiel qui l'a laissée froide
She left in rouge upon the mirror
Elle a laissé du rouge sur le miroir
A circled kiss oh to the faithful fans
Un baiser encerclé oh pour les fans fidèles
Who'd miss her
Qui lui manqueraient
You can cage the songbird
Tu peux mettre l'oiseau chanteur en cage
But you can't make her sing
Mais tu ne peux pas la faire chanter
You can trap the free bird
Tu peux piéger l'oiseau libre
But you'll have to clip her wings
Mais tu devras lui couper les ailes
'Cause she'll soar like a hawk when she flies
Parce qu'elle planera comme un faucon quand elle volera
But she'll die like an eagle
Mais elle mourra comme un aigle
When she die
Quand elle mourra
