Bored By Dreams
Marianne Faithfull · Stranger On Earth: Introduction To Marianne Faith [2008]
Play a part most of the time
What is yours cannot be mine
And I'm bored by dreams
Bored by dreams
I can't say the words I mean
Make myself go through the line
Does the payment fit the crime
If I'm bored by dreams?
Take me through the steps my love
Shall we dance again?
I was always older then
Now we are the same
Lasse des ríves
Ríve qui brille dans le noir
Brillera bien, tu peux le croire
Toujours dire la verite
Quand je suis lasse des rives
Take me through the steps, my love
Shall we dance again?
Things were always brighter then
Hear me call your name
After a certain age
Every artist works with injury
After a certain age
Every artist works with injury
Take me through the steps my love
Shall we dance again?
I was always older then
Now we are the same
