Текст песни My Face (John Hartford) с переводом

My face, I don’t mind it

I’m standing behind it

It hangs down in front by my hair

It studies the cards

All the aces and spade

But it don’t have to call which they are

I’ve taught it to smile

And to wrinkle its nose

And to froth at the mouth when its mad

I’ve taught it to yawn

And to laugh and to snarl

And to hang out its lip when its sad

My face, I don’t mind it

I live here behind it

Quite tightly it’s wedged 'tween my ears

It acts like a wall

Over which lies the world

So they can’t read my hopes or my fears

In front of my chin

Past the sights and the smells

And the songs and the sounds of the horns

Of the traffic and blaring

And honking and screeching

Of time since the day i was born

My face, if you find it

I’m back here behind it

Its only a mask for the soul

It don’t have no lines

You can follow as such

For its only a part not the whole

While you could be talking

Or snarling or coughing

Or holding your head while you weep

In back of this face i could

Watch or be singing

Or sometimes i might be asleep
