paroles de chanson Moon At The Window - Joni Mitchell

It takes cheerful resignation
Heart and humility
That's all it takes
A cheerful person told me
Nobody is harder on me than me
How could they be?
And nobody is harder on you than you

Betsy is blue
She says, "Tell me something good"
You know I'd help her out if I only could
Oh, but sometimes the light can be so hard to find
At least the moon at the window
The thieves left that behind

People don't know how to love
They taste it and toss it
Turn it off and on like a bathtub faucet

Oh, sometimes the light
Can be so hard to find
At least the moon at the window
The thieves left that behind

I wish her heart
I know these battles
Deep in the dark
When the spooks of memories rattle

Ghosts of the future
Phantoms of the past
Rattle, rattle, rattle in the spoon and the glass

Is it possible to learn
How to care and yet not care
Since love has two faces
Hope and despair

And pleasure always turns to fear
I find at least the moon at the window
The thieves left that behind
Moon at the window, they left that behind
At least they left the moon behind the blind

Moon at the window
