Текст (слова) песни: mitchell joni - The Only Joy In Town
I want to paint a picture Botticelli style Instead of Venus on a clam I`d paint this flower child "You are the air my flowers breathe" He calls, and the ladies turn around On the first day of Spring I`m looking at the only joy around He`s the only joy around The only joy I found The only joy in town The Spanish steps are crowded Bunch of bodies brooding there Dead pan side-walk vendors Hustling vacant stares Making all the more exceptional This fool in a flower crown On the first day of Spring I`m looking at the only joy in town He`s the only joy around The only joy I found The only joy in town The Botticelli black boy With the fuchias in his hair Is breathing in women like oxygen On the Spanish stairs In my youth I would have followed him All through this terra-cotta town On the first day of Spring We`d dance and sing And be the only joy around We`d be the only joy around The only joy in town He`s the only joy I`ve found All day At night these streets are empty Where does everybody go Where are the brash and tender rooms In Roman candle glow Where are Fellini`s circus` La Dolce Vita clowns On the first day of Spring I`m looking At the only joy in town He`s the only joy around The only joy I found The only joy in town 1988, 1991 Crazy Crow Music BMI
