Текст песни Yellow Cat (John Denver) с переводом

It’s late December, the New Year’s never coming

Time passes slowly in a two-room walk-up flat

The sun is silent, there’s a cold rain gonna come on

And no one to talk to

But my lady’s yellow cat

Raindrops falling on the flowers in the window box

Plastic roses that I planted yesterday

I didn’t think they’d die so soon

But they’re all withered now

Seems like everything I touch

Turns out that way

Well I guess I’ll just go walkin'

The cat’s no good for talkin' to

He don’t know what I’m sayin'

And the rain is always

Playin' on my mind

On my mind

Street lights drifting through the blinds that cover window panes

Blending softly with the bare lights overhead

Then together they run swiftly through my memory

An eerie image of a strange and empty bed

Wind is whippin' up the papers in the streets below

I got some books to read

But it seems they’ve all been read

Clouds are crowded in a misty

Driftin' sky above

And I wish to hell

I could remember what I said

Well I guess I’ll just go walkin'

The cat’s no good for talkin' to

He don’t know what I’m sayin'

And the rain is always

Playin' on my mind

On my mind

One crystal wine glass on a table filled with scarlet stains

Stands alone and empty where there once were two

The jug is silent on the table by a broken plate

The wine is gone, my lady, and so, my love, are you

Well I guess I’ll just go walkin'

The cat’s no good for talkin' to

He don’t know what I’m sayin'

And the rain is always

Playin' on my mind

On my mind

On my mind
