Red Velvet - Gordon Lightfoottranslation in German




Red Velvet
Roter Samt
Four months ago in April on a daycoach she came down
Vor vier Monaten, im April, kam sie mit dem Überlandbus an
And the dust autumn winds begin to blow
Und die staubigen Herbstwinde beginnen zu wehen
Shoulda known I couldn't hold livin' out so far from town
Hätte wissen müssen, dass ich sie nicht halten kann, so weit draußen auf dem Land
And the nights to come are long are slow to go
Und die kommenden Nächte sind lang und vergehen nur langsam
Well now she's up and left me and when walkin' down the line
Nun hat sie mich verlassen und ging die Gleise entlang
And the dusty autumn wind begins to blow
Und die staubigen Herbstwinde beginnen zu wehen
All dressed up in red velvet and he high heeled shoes so fine
Ganz in rotem Samt gekleidet und mit hochhackigen Schuhen, so fein
And the nights to come are long and slow to go
Und die kommenden Nächte sind lang und vergehen nur langsam
Well if I had only know before we kissed
Hätte ich es nur gewusst, bevor wir uns küssten
You can't keep red velvet on a poor dirt farm like this
Man kann roten Samt nicht auf einer armen, schmutzigen Farm wie dieser halten
Oh now she's gone and left me and went walkin' down the line
Oh, jetzt hat sie mich verlassen und ging die Gleise entlang
And the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
Und die staubigen Herbstwinde beginnen zu wehen
Well I'll sit and count the evening stars as they walk around
Nun, ich werde sitzen und die Abendsterne zählen, während sie vorüberziehen
When the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
Wenn die staubigen Herbstwinde beginnen zu wehen
Then I'll call my dog and I'll take the truck and I'll drive on into town
Dann rufe ich meinen Hund, nehme den Truck und fahre in die Stadt
Cause the nights to come are long and slow to go
Denn die kommenden Nächte sind lang und vergehen nur langsam
Well I'll sit and count the evening stars as they walk around
Nun, ich werde sitzen und die Abendsterne zählen, während sie vorüberziehen
When the dusty autumn winds begin to blow
Wenn die staubigen Herbstwinde beginnen zu wehen
Then I'll call my dog and I'll take the truck and I'll drive on into town
Dann rufe ich meinen Hund, nehme den Truck und fahre in die Stadt
Cause the nights to come are long and slow to go
Denn die kommenden Nächte sind lang und vergehen nur langsam
And those dusty autumn winds begin to blow
Und diese staubigen Herbstwinde beginnen zu wehen
