One More Cup Of Coffee (Valley Below) re-trans
Retranslation from the German version of the Bob Dylan Song by Peter Post
German version
Original version
One More Cup Of Coffee (to the Valley Below)
Your breath sweet, the eyes two jewels in the night
Your back so straight and your hair a resplendence
But who am I to love you, I am not entitled to you
You are feeling only for the great goddess, you’re a part of her.
One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee ’fore I go
To the valley below
Your daddy the Gypsy wanders in the world
He taught you to give your heart only to the sea
He always oversees you, no stranger may come close to you
He’s severe, he doesn’t care what I’m losing with you
One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee ’fore I go
To the valley below
Your sister sees the future and you have the vision, too,
Inherited from the mother, you’re not able to write
Your bliss has no limit, like a bird you‘re singing so beautifully
But your heart has no shore, where I could stand
One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee ’fore I go
To the valley below
