Suzanne Vega - Room Off the Street [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1:]
Somewhere in a room
With a poster on a wall
Of a man with his hand
In a fist
Is a woman who's drinking
And her dress is so tight
You can see every breath
That she takes

[Chorus:]
Every sigh, every sway
You can hear everything that they say
Something's begun like a war
Or a family or a friendship
Or a fast love affair

[Verse 2:]
The man on the wall
Is his symbol of freedom
It means he has brothers
Who believe as he does

[Verse 3:]
She is moved by
The thing that she sees in his face
Whe he talks of
The cause

[Chorus:]
Every sigh, every sway
You can hear everything that they say
Something's begun like a war
Or a family or a friendship
Or a fast love affair

[Verse 4:]
She leans against him
Her dress is so red
They talk of the salt
And the truth and the bread

[Verse 5:]
The night goes along
The fan goes around
In the room off the street
At the end of the town

[Chorus:]
Every sigh, every sway
You can hear everything that they say
Something's begun like a war
Or a family or a friendship
Or a fast love affair
