《Yvette in English》歌词

[00:00:00] Yvette In English - David Crosby

[00:00:18] He met her in a french cafe

[00:00:22] She slipped in sideways like a cat

[00:00:26] Sidelong glances what a wary little stray

[00:00:31] She sticks in his mind like that

[00:00:36] Saying 'avez vous un alumette'

[00:00:40] With her lips wrapped around a cigarette

[00:00:47] Yvette in English saying please have this

[00:00:52] Little bit of instant bliss

[00:01:10] He's struggling with a foreign tongue

[00:01:15] Reaching for words and drawing blanks

[00:01:19] A loud mouth is stricken deaf and dumb

[00:01:23] In a bistro on the left bank

[00:01:30] If I was a painter Picasso said

[00:01:33] I'd paint this girl from toe to head

[00:01:41] Yvette in English saying please have this

[00:01:45] Little bit of instant bliss

[00:02:04] Burgundy nocturne tips and spills

[00:02:08] They move along nicely in the spreading stain

[00:02:12] New chills new thrills

[00:02:13] For the old uphill battle

[00:02:16] How did he wind up here again

[00:02:22] Walking and talking touched and scared

[00:02:26] Uninsulated wires bare

[00:02:34] Yvette in English saying 'please have this

[00:02:38] Little bit of instant bliss

[00:02:57] What blew her like a leaf his way

[00:03:01] Up in the air and down to earth

[00:03:05] First she flusters then she frays

[00:03:09] So quick to question her own worth

[00:03:15] Her cigarette burns her finger tips

[00:03:20] It falls like fireworks she curses it

[00:03:26] Sweetly in English she says 'please have this

[00:03:30] Little bit of instant bliss

[00:03:50] He sees her turn and walk away

[00:03:54] Skittering like a cat on a stone

[00:03:58] Her high heels clicking what a wary little stray

[00:04:02] She leaves him by the Seine alone

[00:04:08] With black water and amber lights

[00:04:13] And the bony bridge between left and right

[00:04:24] Yvette in English saying 'please have this

[00:04:28] Little bit of instant bliss
