Testo The Gallery - Joni Mitchell
Testo della canzone The Gallery (Joni Mitchell), tratta dall'album Clouds
When I first saw your gallery
I liked the ones of ladies
Then you began to hang up me
You studied to portray me
In ice and greens and old blue jeans
And naked in the roses
Then you got into funny scenes
That all your work discloses
"Lady, don't love me now, I am dead
I am a saint, turn down your bed"
"I have no heart", that's what you said
You said, "I can be cruel
But let me be gentle with you"
Somewhere in a magazine
I found a page about you
I see that now it's Josephine
Who cannot be without you
I keep your house in fit repair
I dust the portraits daily
Your mail comes here from everywhere
The writing looks like ladies'
"Lady, don't love me now, I am dead
I am a saint, turn down your bed"
"I have no heart", that's what you said
You said, "I can be cruel
But let me be gentle with you"
I gave you all my pretty years
Then we began to weather
And I was left to winter here
While you went west for pleasure
And now you're flyin' back this way
Like some lost homing pigeon
They've monitored your brain, you say
And changed you with religion
"Lady, please love me now, I was dead
I am no saint, turn down your bed"
"Lady, have you no heart?", that's what you said
Well, I can be cruel
But let me be gentle with you
When I first saw your gallery
I liked the ones of ladies
But now their faces follow me
And all their eyes look shady
