Testo Sweet Sucker Dance - Joni Mitchell
Testo della canzone Sweet Sucker Dance (Joni Mitchell), tratta dall'album Mingus
I almost closed the door
Cancelled on everything we opened up for
Tonight, the shadows had their say
Their sad notions of the way things really are
Damn these blues!
They'd turn my heart against you
Since I was fool enough to find romance
I'm trying to convince myself, this is just a dance
We move in measures through loves' changing faces
Needy and nonchalant, greedy and gracious
Through petty dismissals and grand embraces
Like it was only a dance
We are survivors, some get broken, some get mended
Some can't surrender, they're too well defended
Some get lucky, some are blessed, and some pretend
This is only a dance
We're dancing fools, you and me
Tonight, it's a dance of insecurity
It's my solo while you're away
Bo-do, bo-do-do-do-do-do
Shadows have the saddest things to say
Love, we can't live without it
Why do we go out and get it, just to turn around and doubt it?
Like we're scared to care, it's hard to talk about it
Aw, it's only a dance
Ba-da-da-do, do-do-do
Ba-do-da-da-do-do, bo-do-do
Tonight, the shadows had their say
There's a sucker born a day
I heard them say, "Born to lose"
Am I a sucker to love you?
Bo-do-do-bo-do
Bon-vi-bo-do-bo-do-do-do
We-bo-do-do-dee, oh
You're such a sweet love, you're a proud man, you're a treasure
Time passes gracefully, living can be such a pleasure
You make it easy to take it in measures
Like it was only a dance
Dear
We-bo-do-do-dee, bo-do-do
We-bo, we-do-do
Ba-do-do, bo-do-dee-dee
We're dancing fools, you and me
Tonight, it's a dance of insecurity
It's my solo, blue way
Bo-do, bo-do-do-do-do-do-do
And shadows have the saddest things to say
We are survivors, some get broken, some get mended
Some can't surrender, they're too well defended
Some get lucky, some are blessed, and some pretend
It's only a dance
