Lilia - Anat Cohen

Red of pain 夢の中で飲み干す Gentle lie 愛の蜜は幻想? とめど無く Dead of pain 君は蜥蜴(とかげ)? 蜘蛛(くも)? 糸、絡みつき 寂寞(せきばく)の夜 独りよがりで惨めにさせないで 「寂寞に溶け込み、暗闇を好む」 夜よ明けないで 「目覚めればきえてしまう どうか、このままで」 リリア 愛だけ欲しくて リリア 君だけ求めた 夢の続きで良い 他に何も要らない リリア 愛さえ怯えて リリア 傀儡(かいらい)、仮面の中 泣いて泣いて 叶うはず無い想いに 寂寞の夜 独りよがりで惨めにさせないで 「寂寞に溶け込み、暗闇を好む」 夜よ明けないで リリア どうして？ リリア 愛さえ怖くて リリア 現実(リアル)から逃げた 空想(ゆめ)の続きで良い 他に何も要らないから 二人、最後の口づけ 胸にナイフで十字を切って 君に問いた 「僕は馬鹿な籠(かご)のトリ？」 「回レ、君ハ所詮堕チタ薔薇」

Field Commander Cohen He was our most important spy Wounded in the line of duty Parachuting acid into diplomatic cocktail parties Urging Fidel Castro to abandon fields and castles Leave it all and like a man Come back to nothing special Such as waiting rooms and ticket lines Silver bullet suicides and messianic ocean tides And racial roller coaster rides And other forms of boredom, advertised as poetry I know you need your sleep now I know your life's been hard But many men are falling Where you promised to stand guard I never asked but I heard You cast your lot along with the poor But then I overheard your prayer That you be this and nothing more Than just some grateful faithful woman's Favorite singing millionaire The patron Saint of Envy and the grocer of despair Working for the Yankee dollar I know you need your sleep now I know your life's been hard But many men are falling Where you promised to stand guard Ah, lover come and lie with me If my lover is who you are And be your sweetest self awhile Until I ask for more, my child Then let the other selves be one, yeah Let them manifest and come 'Til every taste is on the tongue 'Til love is pierced and love is hung And every kind of freedom done Then, oh, my love, oh, my love Oh, my love, oh, my love Oh, my love, oh, my love Oh, my love

אבא, כמה אהבה יש לי אליך אתה לא יודע ואם לא הראיתי מספיק קח עוד שיר שיוכל להסביר מצטער שלא הבנתי את הלב שלך מצטער שלא מצאתי את המילים איתך כי הרי מה שקיבלתי כל זה בזכותך תן לי את היד מבטיח, לא לעזוב אותך אבא אין פה מושלם אבל בשבילי אתה כל העולם גם אם יבואו שנים ללא מילים אני אבין אותך אני הבן שלך קח את הכול זה בכלל שלך תודה על הכול אני אוהב אותך ואף פעם לא כעסתי על הלב שלך אל תדאג כי זו הדרך שכתובה לך והרי מה שנתתי כל זה בשבילך גם אם לא תהיה איתי פה אני תמיד איתך

I set out one night When the tide was low There were signs in the sky But I did not know I'd be caught in the grip Of the undertow Ditched on a beach Where the sea hates to go With a child in my arms And a chill in my soul And my heart the shape Of a begging bowl I set out one night But I did not know I'd be caught in the grip Of the undertow Ditched on a beach Where the sea hates to go With a child in my arms And a chill in my soul And my heart the shape Of a begging bowl

I'm slowing down the tune I've never liked it fast You wanna get there soon I wanna get there last It's not because I'm old It's not the life I led I always liked it slow That's what my Mamma said I'm lacing up my shoes But I don't want to run I'll get there when I do Don't need no starting gun It's not because I'm old And it's not what dying does I've always liked it slow Slow is in my blood I've always liked it slow I never liked it fast With you it's got to go With me it's got to last It's not because I'm old It's not because I'm dead I've always liked it slow That's what my Mamma said All your moves are swift All your turns are tight Let me catch my breath I thought we had all night I like to take my time I like to linger as it flies A weekend on your lips A lifetime in your eyes I've always liked it slow I never liked it fast With you it's got to go With me it's got to last It's not because I'm old It's not the life I led I've always liked it slow That's what my Mamma said I'm slowing down the tune I've never liked it fast You wanna get there soon I wanna get there last So, baby let me go You're wanted back in town In case they want to know I'm just trying to slow it down
