Who Do You Think You Are?(original) |
The hunted look, the haunted grace |
The empty laugh that you cultivate |
You fall into that false embrace |
And kiss the air about her face |
Who do you think you are? |
The très bon mots you almost quote from your |
Quiver of literary darts |
A thousand or so tuneless violins |
Thrilling your cheap little heart |
Who do you think you are? |
My cigarette burns right down to the ash |
My coffee cup is unstained |
The waiter hovers close at hand |
His courtesy strained |
Who do you think you are? |
I close with my regards |
Well I’m the red-face gentleman |
Caught in this picture postcard |
Who do you think you are? |
I’m trying my best to make the best of your absence |
Though the joke gets tired and sordid |
Sea-shell hearts get trampled under foot |
Punchlines unrewarded |
But even at this distance |
It’s not easy to accept |
The vision that I chase returns |
When I least expect it |
I’ve fallen from your tired embrace |
I kiss the air |
Around the place |
That should be |
Your face |
(traducción) |
La mirada perseguida, la gracia embrujada |
La risa vacía que cultivas |
Caes en ese falso abrazo |
Y besa el aire alrededor de su cara |
¿Quién crees que eres? |
Los très bon mots que casi cita de su |
Carcaj de dardos literarios |
Más o menos mil violines desafinados |
Emocionando tu corazoncito barato |
¿Quién crees que eres? |
Mi cigarrillo se quema hasta las cenizas |
Mi taza de café no está manchada |
El camarero se cierne cerca de la mano |
Su cortesía tensa |
¿Quién crees que eres? |
Cierro con mis saludos |
Bueno, yo soy el caballero de la cara roja |
Atrapado en esta postal |
¿Quién crees que eres? |
Estoy haciendo todo lo posible para sacar lo mejor de tu ausencia |
Aunque la broma se vuelve cansada y sórdida |
Los corazones de conchas marinas son pisoteados |
remates sin recompensa |
Pero incluso a esta distancia |
No es fácil de aceptar |
La visión que persigo regresa |
Cuando menos lo espero |
Me he caído de tu abrazo cansado |
beso el aire |
alrededor del lugar |
eso debería ser |
Tu cara |
