The Comedians (Live Version) - Live Version歌词

作词 : Costello
Album: The Essential Roy Orbison

I sat there alone upon the ferris wheel

A pastel colored carriage in the air

I thought you'd leave me dangling for a little while

A silly twist upon a childish dare

Below I saw you whispering to another man

Who held the lever that could bring me down

He'd stop the world from turning at your command

It's always something cruel that laughter drowns

And I'm up while the dawn is breaking
Even though my is heart aching

I should be drinking a toast to absent friends

Instead of these comedians

I can hardly hear the music from the carousel

The wind picks up, the carriage starts sway

As one by one the lights go out, it's closing time

I see you take his hand and walk away, walk away

They say that you will always be the last to know

They say that all that glitters is not gold

It's not just that you're never coming back to me

It's the bitter way that I was told

And I'm up while the dawn is breaking
Even though my heart is aching
I should be drinking a toast to absent friends

Instead of these comedians
