Marianne Faithfull - Sister morphine II

Tekst :

Here I lie in my hospital bed,
Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again.
Oh, and I don t think I can wait that long
Oh, you see that my pain is so strong.

All the other patients say they ve never seen a man with such pain,
Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again ?
Oh, I don t think I can wait that long,
Oh, you see that I m not that strong.

The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ear.
Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here ?
What am I doing in this place ?
Why does the doctor have no face ?
Oh, I can t crawl across the floor.
Can t you see, Sister Morphine, just trying to score.

Well, it just goes to show things are not what they seem.
Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmare into dreams.
Oh, can t you see I m fading fast
And that this shot will be the last.

Please, Cousin Cocaine, lay your cool hands on my head.
Hey, Sister Morphine, you d better make up the lyin bed
Cause you know and I know in the morning I ll be dead,
And you can sit around and watch all the clean white sheets stain red.

    Twoja dłoń

    Czy to jest dłoń
    dla której ja
    wkładałam wciąż
    to najgładsze z ciał

    Czy to jest dłoń
    pod którą moje piersi jak
    kwiaty dwa
    karminem nieustannie i bezwstydnie zakwitały

    Czy to jest dłoń
    mój cały świat
    prawdziwy choć...

    Cockleshells

    When cockleshells turn silver bells
    Then will my love return to me
    Then will my love return to me
    Then will my love return to me

    Love return to me
    Love return to me
    Love return
    Love return
    Love return to me.

    In pastures green
    I shall be seen
    With my true love right by my side
    With my true love right...

    Silber bell

    Silver bell
    Silver bell
    Yeah that s the name of the old motel
    You were traveling when they fell
    Down on a bed at the silver bell
    How you been
    I m doing well
    I hear you re digging a hole to hell
    How you been
    I m doing well
    Meet me tonight at the silver bell

    I hate to tell...

    Ojos asi (engilsh)

    Yesterday i knew a sky without sun
    and a man without ground
    a priest in prison
    and a sad song without an owner
    ya he, ya he, ya la he
    and i knew your black eyes
    ya he, ya he, ya la he

    Amor de hielo y sal

    Aliados inhibidos o complices amantes escondidos,
    Amamos lo que somos amamos nuestra piel y eso es todo.
    Yo fria como el hielo tu corazon de hierro y a empezar,
    Nos hundimos en palabras de caricias empapadas de pasion.
    Desnudos en la cama y no mueren las ganas oooooonooo,
    Extrañas confusiones...
