歌词
歌曲名 I Had A King
歌手名 Joni Mitchell
作曲:Joni Mitchell
I had a king in a tenement castle
Lately he's taken
To painting the pastel walls brown
He's taken the curtains down
He's swept with the broom of contempt
And the rooms have an empty ring
He's cleaned with the tears
Of an actor
Who fears for the laughter's sting
I can't go back there anymore
You know my keys won't fit the door
You know my thoughts don't fit the man
They never can
They never can
I had a king dressed in drip dry and paisley
Lately he's taken to saying
I'm crazy and blind
He lives in another time
Ladies in gingham still blush
While he sings them of wars
And wine
But I in my leather and lace
I can never become that kind
I can't go back there anymore
You know my keys won't fit the door
You know my thoughts don't fit the man
They never can
They never can
I had a king in a salt rusted carriage
Who carried me off to
His country for marriage too soon
Beware of the power of moons
There's no one to blame
No there's no one to name
As a traitor here
The kings on the road
And the queens in the grove
Till the end of the year
I can't go back there anymore
You know my keys won't fit the door
You know my thoughts don't fit the man
They never can
They never can
They never can
They never can
