Lyrics and translation Joe South - Let's Talk It Over

Let's Talk It Over

So you've gonged the bong
And found somebody new
I wanna tell you that I'm sorry
What else can I do?
But say, before you put me down
Let's kick it around
Let's talk it over
Let's talk it over

Somebody lied and said I cheated
And said that you should do the same
But don't you wanna reconsider
Because I'm really not to blame?
And say, before you put me down
Let's kick it around
Let's talk it over
Let's talk it over

Well, let's talk about the good times
Well, that we've had together
And let's talk about the bad times
That you're gonna have to weather

Well, let's talk about your new love
And what you gonna do
And let's talk about an old love
That's really, really true

You know the grass is looking greener
Over there 'cross the track
But baby, when you leave me
You know you can't come back
And say, before you put me down
Let's kick it around
Let's talk it over
Let's talk it over

Well, let's talk it over
Let's talk it over
Let's talk it over
Let's talk it over

Parlons-en

Alors, tu as trouvé quelqu'un de nouveau
Et tu veux me quitter
Je veux te dire que je suis désolé
Que puis-je faire d'autre ?
Mais avant que tu ne me rejettes
Parlons-en
Parlons-en
Parlons-en

Quelqu'un a menti et a dit que je t'avais trompée
Et t'a dit que tu devrais faire de même
Mais ne veux-tu pas reconsidérer ?
Parce que je ne suis vraiment pas à blâmer ?
Et avant que tu ne me rejettes
Parlons-en
Parlons-en
Parlons-en

Eh bien, parlons des bons moments
Que nous avons passés ensemble
Et parlons des mauvais moments
Que tu vas devoir affronter

Eh bien, parlons de ton nouvel amour
Et de ce que tu vas faire
Et parlons d'un vieil amour
Qui est vraiment, vraiment vrai

Tu sais que l'herbe est plus verte
Là-bas, de l'autre côté des rails
Mais chérie, quand tu me quittes
Tu sais que tu ne peux pas revenir
Et avant que tu ne me rejettes
Parlons-en
Parlons-en
Parlons-en

Eh bien, parlons-en
Parlons-en
Parlons-en
Parlons-en
