Play me old King Cole
That I may join with you
All your hearts now seem so far from me
It hardly seems to matter now
And the nurse will tell you lies
Of a kingdom beyond the skies
But I am lost within this half world
It hardly seems to matter now
Play me my song
Here it comes again
Play me my song
Here it comes again
Just a little bit
Just a little bit more time
Time left to live out my life
Play me my song
Here it comes again
Play me my song
Here it comes again
Old King Cole was a merry old soul
And a merry old soul was he
So he called for his pipe
And he called for his bowl
And he called for his fiddlers three
The clock, tick-tock
On the mantelpiece
And I want and I feel
And I know and I touch the wall
She’s a lady, she’s got time
Brush back your hair
And let me get to know your face
She’s a lady, she is mine
Brush back your hair
And let me get to know your flesh
I’ve been waiting here for so long
And all this time that passed me by
It doesn’t seem to matter now
You stand there with your fixed expression
Casting doubt on all I have to say
Why don’t you touch me, touch me?
Why don’t you touch me, touch me?
Touch me now
Now, now, now
Prevod pesme
Muzička kutija
Sviraj mi Starog kralja Kola
Da vam se mogu pridružiti
Sva vaša srca sad mi se čine tako daleka
Da mi to gotovo i ne smeta
A sestrica će te lagati
O kraljevstvu na nebu
Ali ja sam izgubljen u ovom polu svetu
Pa to više skoro nije ni važno
Pusti mi moju pesmu
I opet nailaze
Pusti mi moju pesmu
I opet nailaze
Samo još malo
Samo još malo vremena
Preostalog vremena da svoj život proživim
Pusti mi moju pesmu
I opet nailaze
Pusti mi moju pesmu
I opet nailaze
Stari kralj Kol bio je veseljak
i veseljak stari bio je on
Pa je tražio svoju lulu
i tražio svoju činiju
i pozvao svoje tri violiniste
Sat kuca tik-tak
na kaminu
A ja hoću i ja osećam
I ja znam i dodirnem zid
Ona je dama, ona ima vremena
Začešljaj kosu prema nazad
I dozvoli da ti upoznam lice
Ona je dama, ona je moja
Začešljaj kosu prema nazad
I dozvoli da ti upoznam telo
Jako dugo sam ovde čekao
I svo te vreme koje me je zaobišlo
Ono više nije ni važno
Stojiš tu tvrdog izraza lica
Bacaš sumnju na sve što imam da kažem
Zašto me ne dodirneš, dodirneš?
Zašto me ne dodirneš, dodirneš?
Dodirni me sad
Sad, sad, sad
