Conversation Piece - Stereo Version
Conversation Piece - Version Stéréo
I took this walk to ease my mind
J'ai fait cette promenade pour me calmer l'esprit
To find out what's gnawing at me
Pour trouver ce qui me ronge
Wouldn't think to look at me,
Tu ne penserais jamais en me regardant,
That I've spent a lot of time in education
Que j'ai passé beaucoup de temps à étudier
It all seems so long ago
Tout cela semble si lointain maintenant
I'm a thinker, not a talker
Je suis un penseur, pas un parleur
I've no-one to talk to, anyway
Je n'ai personne à qui parler de toute façon
I can't see the road
Je ne vois pas la route
For the rain in my eyes
A cause de la pluie dans mes yeux
Ahhh ...
Ahhh ...
I live above the grocers store,
J'habite au-dessus de l'épicerie,
Owned by an austrian
Propriété d'un autrichien
He often calls me down to eat
Il m'appelle souvent pour manger
And he jokes about his broken english,
Et il plaisante sur son anglais cassé,
Tries to be a friend to me
Il essaie d'être mon ami
But for all my years of reading conversation,
Mais malgré toutes mes années de lecture et de conversation,
I stand without a word to say
Je reste sans un mot à dire
I can't see the bridge
Je ne vois pas le pont
For the rain in my eye
A cause de la pluie dans mon œil
Ahhh...
Ahhh...
And the world is full of life
Et le monde est plein de vie
Full of folk who don't know me
Plein de gens qui ne me connaissent pas
And they walk in twos or threes or mor
Et ils marchent en deux, en trois ou en plus
While the light that shines above the grocer's store
Alors que la lumière qui brille au-dessus de l'épicerie
Investigates my face so rudely
Examine mon visage si brutalement
And my essays lying scattered on the floor
Et mes essais éparpillés sur le sol
Fulfill their needs just by being there
Satisfont leurs besoins simplement en étant là
And my hands shake, my head hurts,
Et mes mains tremblent, ma tête me fait mal,
My voice sticks inside my throat
Ma voix reste coincée dans ma gorge
I'm invisible and dumb,
Je suis invisible et muet,
And no-one will recall me
Et personne ne se souviendra de moi
And I can't see the water
Et je ne vois pas l'eau
Through the tears in my ey-y-yes
A travers les larmes dans mes ye-y-yeux
