[00:00.00]I Had a King - Joni Mitchell (琼尼·米契儿)
[00:10.25]I had a king in a tenement castle
[00:14.61]Lately he's taken to painting the pastel walls brown
[00:21.50]He's taken the curtains down
[00:27.02]He's swept with the broom of contempt
[00:30.18]And the rooms have an empty ring
[00:35.66]He's cleaned with the tears
[00:37.44]Of an actor who fears for the laughter's sting
[00:47.66]I can't go back there anymore
[00:51.93]You know my keys won't fit the door
[00:56.32]You know my thoughts don't fit the man
[01:01.18]They never can they never can
[01:09.65]I had a king dressed in drip dry and paisley
[01:14.07]Lately he's taken to saying I'm crazy and blind
[01:20.77]He lives in another time
[01:26.54]Ladies in gingham still blush
[01:29.50]While he sings them of wars and wine
[01:35.35]But I in my leather and lace
[01:38.70]I can never become that kind
[01:47.21]I can't go back there anymore
[01:51.53]You know my keys won't fit the door
[01:55.89]You know my thoughts don't fit the man
[02:00.78]They never can they never can
[02:09.40]I had a king in a salt rusted carriage
[02:13.76]Who carried me off to his country for marriage too soon
[02:20.86]Beware of the power of moons
[02:26.28]There's no one to blame
[02:28.00]No there's no one to name as a traitor here
[02:35.35]The king's on the road
[02:37.44]And the queen's in the grove till the end of the year
[02:47.61]I can't go back there anymore
[02:52.11]You know my keys won't fit the door
[02:56.40]You know my thoughts don't fit the man
[03:01.37]They never can they never can
[03:11.04]They never can they never can
