Lyrics and translation The Monkees - Don't Bring Me Down

Don't Bring Me Down

It used to be such a good thing
Such an easy feeling
I didn′t know you were looking
Didn't know you were stealing
I was loving you when we were alone
But you had other ideas of your own
Word gets around
Don′t bring me down
We used to have us some good times
Used to laugh together
It took awhile to realize
You were wantin' something better
When we were kissin' I closed my eyes
But you were lookin′ at the other guys
I played the clown
Don′t bring me down
It used to be such a good thing
Such an easy feelin'
I didn′t know you were lookin'
I didn′t know you were stealing
I went and messed it up and fell in love
But you sure know how to make it rough
You're still around
Don′t bring me down

Ne me rabaisse pas

Avant, c'était tellement bien
Un sentiment tellement facile
Je ne savais pas que tu regardais
Je ne savais pas que tu volais
Je t'aimais quand on était seuls
Mais tu avais d'autres idées
Ça se sait
Ne me rabaisse pas
On avait l'habitude de passer de bons moments
On avait l'habitude de rire ensemble
Il m'a fallu un certain temps pour réaliser
Que tu voulais quelque chose de mieux
Quand on s'embrassait, je fermais les yeux
Mais tu regardais les autres mecs
J'ai joué le clown
Ne me rabaisse pas
Avant, c'était tellement bien
Un sentiment tellement facile
Je ne savais pas que tu regardais
Je ne savais pas que tu volais
Je suis allé tout gâcher et je suis tombé amoureux
Mais tu sais vraiment comment rendre les choses difficiles
Tu es toujours là
Ne me rabaisse pas
