FARMER GIRL

Music by Julien Vega
Lyrics by John Greaves & Julien Vega

HERE ALL ALONE IN THE CORNFIELD AT NIGHT
THE SKY’S FULL OF STARS
AND THE MOON’S SHINING BRIGHT
IF ONLY I COULD FLY OFF LIKE A BIRD,
FLY AWAY, FLY AWAY, LIKE A BLUE BIRD.

Chorus

I’LL BE DANCER TWIRLING AROUND
AN ACTRESS, A SINGER, A BEAUTY QUEEN CROWNED
MY FACE WILL BE SEEN IN EVERY MAGAZINE
FROM PARIS TO L. A.
FROM NEW YORK TO BOMBAY
FARMER GIRL, FARMER GIRL, FLY AWAY ! (DREAM AWAY)

MY MA AND PA BOTH WORK HARD ON THE LAND,
I DO MY DAMNEDEST TO LEND THEM A HAND,
I COULD NOT STAND ALL THE STRUGGLE AND STRIFE
FARMER GIRL, FARMER’S WIFE…NOT ON YOUR LIFE.

Chorus

I JUST CAN’T LIVE LIKE A BIRD IN A CAGE
EACH DAY THAT GOES BY SEEMS MORE LIKE AN AGE
INTO THE NIGHT SKY AWAY I WILL FLY
FLY AWAY FLY AWAY LIKE A BLUEBIRD

I’LL BE DANCER TWIRLING AROUND
AN ACTRESS, A SINGER, A BEAUTY QUEEN CROWNED
MY FACE WILL BE SEEN IN EVERY MAGAZINE
FROM PARIS TO L. A.
FROM NEW YORK TO BOMBAY
ALL THIS I’LL ACHIEVE
CALL ME NAÏVE
BUT I BELIEVE
DREAMS CAN COME TRUE

ES:

No es que no escuchara
es que me hacía la tonta
porque no quería dejarte
ni que me dejaras sola.

No es que tus labios supieran
como amarrarse a los míos
pero al calor de mi nido
dejabas ver tu delirio.

Tu delirio por mi
cuando decías que me amabas
solo borracho y en llamas
podías mostrarme tus ansias

Fui tonta y me gustabas
siempre me dabas ganas
que me lo recordaras
llenaba mis mañanas

Por eso es que te embriagaba
pa' que soltaras palabras
tu forma de decirlo
Que me quería y me adorabas

Tu delirio por mi
cuando decías que me amabas
solo borracho y en llamas
podías mostrarme tus ansias.

Tu delirio por mi
Ay ay ay...

Tu delirio por mi
cuando decías que me amabas
solo borracho y en llamas, ya ves
podías mostrarme tus ansias.

Podías mostrarme tus ansias.



EN:

It's not that I didn't listen
it's that I was playing dumb
because I didn't want to leave you
or that you would leave me alone.

It's not that your lips knew
how to tie themselves to mine
but in the warmth of my nest
you revealed your delirium.

Your delirium for me
when you said you loved me
only drunk and on fire
you could show me your longing

I was silly and I liked you
you always made me want to
when you reminded me of it
It filled up my mornings

That's why I used to get you drunk
to make you spill your words out
your way of saying it
That you loved me and you adored me

Your delirium for me
When you said you loved me
only drunk and on fire
You could show me your longing.

Your delirium for me
Ay ay ay ay...

Your delirium for me
when you said you loved me
only drunk and on fire, you see
you could show me your longing.

You could show me your longing.

Je n’ai que ton amourPour baigner de douceurLa fuite de nos joursOublier nos malheurs.Cette route insensée
Epuise notre sangPourquoi vivre accabléLorsque l’on s’aime tant
Je n’ai que ton amourPour enflammer ma vieDans ta force infinieJe me love sans détourTu réchauffe mon cœurApaise mon chagrinPourquoi tout ce bonheur
Aurait-il une fin
Je n’ai que ton amourDans mon sang dans ma chairEt ma gorge se serreAttendant ton retourDes automnes durant.Le bois mort de nos viesCouvrira nos printemps
Et nos amours finis

English translation :

I’ve only got your love
I’ve only got your loveTo sweetly batheThe passing of our daysTo forget our unhappinessThis road without senseDrains us of blood,Why live despondentWhen we

love each other so much
I’ve only got your loveto light up my lifeI unhesitatingly bury myself
In your infinite strengthYou recandle my heaertSweeten my sadnessWhy must all this happinessCome to an end
I’ve only got your loveIn my flesh and bloodAnd the tears well upAwaiting your returnFor so many autumnsThe dead wood of our livesWill cover our springtimesAnd our lost love
