Bitter Sweet - Roxy Music (Cover)

Описание: From their 1974 album Country Life.
One of the first Roxy Music songs that caught my attention, with its both alluring and threatening mood, its profound lyrics and unique experimental nature. Bryan Ferry at his best.

Well this is such a sad affair
I've opened up my heart
So many times
But now it's closed

Oh my dear every salted tear
It wrings bittersweet applause

But when the show's in full swing
Every once in a while
High stepping chorus lines
Mean I'm forgetting
Mein lullaby Liebchen

How rich in contrast love can be
Sometimes I'm quite amused
To see it twist and turn
To taste both sweet and dry

These vintage years
Lovers you consume, my friend
As others their wine

Nein, das ist nicht
Das Ende der Welt
Gestrandet an Leben und Kunst
Und das Spiel geht weiter
Wie man weiß
Noch viele schönste Wiedersehn'

And now, as you turn to leave
You try to force a smile
As if to compensate
Then you break down and cry
