Paroles et traduction Ulf Lundell - Blue Hearts Hotel

Blue Hearts Hotel

Harry Vest krde ner bilen
I en bottenls sj
Fick ut frskringspengarna
Kte till en karibisk
Lg p mage i vattnet och sg
Fiskarna drnere simma frbi
Ver korallerna och Harry Vest knde
Att han ntligen kommit till liv
Kulrta lampor i palmerna
Ngra bunnies, Santa Claus
Merry Christmas vid poolen
Pia coladas, fyrverkerikalas
Mtte en flicka frn stan
Hon sa var bara damm och skjul
Nu satt hon med kort kjol i baren
Och Herry Vest sa: God jul
Hon var len som sammet
Hon var brun som choklad
Hon sjng: Mi amor, mi corazn
Felice Navidad!
Och stjrnorna tindrade ver
Havet varje kvll
Och rouletten snurrade snurrade
P Blue Hearts Hotel
Du frlorar, du vinner
Det r svart eller rtt
Dom tog en buss upp i bergen
Hon hade hrt att hennes pappas hade dtt
Dom tog allt vad han hade
Slngde honom under kaktusarna p en slnt
Han vaknade upp i soluppgngen och knde sig
Som han aldrig frut knt
Hotellrummet var tomt
Dr fanns ingenting kvar
Han gick ner och tog en whiskey
Han tog tv i hotellets bar
Satte upp det p rummet
Och gick bort lngs stranden en bit
Och homlen var s bl
Och solen s vit
Barerna, lobbyna
Det tog honom fyra dar
Sen satt han mitt emot henne
P The Northern Star
Och sa: Jag vill bara ha tillbaks det
Som r mitt
Och natten var s svart
Och mnskenet s vitt
Se p gatlyktorna i dimman
Ver en viadukt
Knn hur luften str stilla
Tung av decemberfukt
Dr gr en man och en kvinna
Med en barnvagn i en julstjrnestad
Hon sjer: Mi amor, mi corazn
Felice Navidad

Blue Hearts Hotel

Harry Vest drove his car
Into a bottomless sea
He received the insurance money
Bought a Caribbean getaway
Lay on his stomach in the water and said
The fish swim by down there
Over the corals, and Harry Vest felt
That he had finally come to life
Colored lights in the palm trees
A few bunnies, Santa Claus
Merry Christmas by the pool
Piña coladas, fireworks displays
He met a girl from the city
She said it was just dust and sheds
Now she was sitting at the bar in a short skirt
And Harry Vest said: Merry Christmas
She was soft as velvet
She was brown as chocolate
She sang: Mi amor, mi corazón
Felice Navidad!
And the stars twinkled above
The sea every evening
And the roulette spun and spun
At Blue Hearts Hotel
You lose, you win
It's black or red
They took a bus up into the mountains
She had heard that her father had died
They took everything he had
Threw him under the cacti on a slope
He woke up at sunrise and felt
Like he had never felt before
The hotel room was empty
There was nothing left
He went down and had a whiskey
He had two at the hotel bar
Put it up on the room
And walked a bit along the beach
And the sky was so blue
And the sun so white
The bars, the lobbies
It took him four days
Then he sat opposite her
On The Northern Star
And said: I just want back what
Is mine
And the night was so dark
And the moon so bright
Look at the streetlights in the fog
Over a viaduct
Feel how the air is still
Heavy with December moisture
There goes a man and a woman
With a stroller in a Christmas star town
She says: Mi amor, mi corazón
Felice Navidad
