Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Black Coffee by Sarah Vaughan from French to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
I'm feeling mighty lonesome
I'm feeling mighty lonely
Haven't slept a wink
Haven't slept a wink
I walk the floor and watch the door
I walk the floor and watch the door
And in between I drink
And in between I drink
Love's a hand-me-down brew
Love's a hand-me-down brew
I'll never know a Sunday
I'll never know a Sunday
In this weekday room
In this weekend room
I'm talking to the shadows
I'm talking to the shadows
One o'clock to four
One o'clock to four
And Lord, how slow the moments go
And Lord, how slow the moments go
When all I do is pour
When all I do is for
Since the blues caught my eye
Since the blues caught my eye
I'm hanging out on Monday
I'm hanging out on Monday
My Sunday dream's too dry
My Sunday dream's too dry
Now, a man is born to go a-loving
Now, a man is born to go a-loving
A woman's born to weep and fret
A woman's born to weep and fret
And stay at home and tend her oven
And stay at home and tend her oven
And drown her past regrets
And drown her past regrets
In coffee and cigarettes
In coffee and cigarettes
I'm moody all the morning
I'm moody all the morning
Mourning all the night
Mourning all the night
And in between, it's nicotine
And in between, it's nicotine
And not much hard to fight
And not much hard to fight
Feeling low as the ground
Feeling low as the ground
It's driving me crazy
It's driving me crazy
This waiting for my baby
This waiting for my baby
To maybe come around
To maybe come around
