The Midnight Blues
Второй мой "шедевр", написаный под мелодию. Предыдущий был "Я снова один" на мелодию "Времени дождей" группы "Ракетобиль". И вот сейчас перед вами - "The Midnight Blues", который изначально был "Miranda Blues". Не знаю, насколько точно я передал акцент и слэнг, но вот он:

The Midnight Blues

I was gonna find you, baby,
An' I was gonna be all yours,
We was gonna be together
Till the time the good Lord comes,
But I'm sitting here alone,
Not afraid that I could lose
An' I'm humming to the tune of
The Midnight Blues

I was gonna call you, baby,
An' I was gonna take you for a ride,
Out of this hot, hot little town
Into the endless night,
Bu I find it easier just to
Sit here, eat, drink and snooze,
And imagine your sweet voice singing
The Midnight Blues

I was gonna love you, baby,
An' you was gonna be mine,
But the time's a-changin',
And my life is running by,
An' I seem to take no notice,
But to sit here and choose
To listen to the soothing sound of
The Midnight Blues

На какую мелодию написано? На какую-то блюзовую :) Как узнаю, сразу скажу


Первоначальный вариант просто напевался, потом появилась "любовная линия", а под конец - и рифма, и я решил все это дело переписать

I was gonna go somwhere,
An' I got some work to do,
But this monkey business
Hs changed my mind and so
I'm sitting here, eyes open wide,
Sayin' hellos to strangers
And singing to the music
Of Miranda Blues

I was gonna call you, baby,
An' I was gonna take you for a ride
Out of this town
And into the night,
But I find it easier just to
Sit here and pretend,
And imagin your sweet voice singing
Miranda Blues

I was gonna love you, baby,
An' you was gonna be mine,
But the time's a-changin',
And my life is running by,
An' I seem to take no notice,
But to sit here and choose
To listen to the soothing sound of
Miranda Blues


Enjoy! :)
