Lyrics of ' Chinese Cafe / Unchained Melody ' by Joni Mitchell

Do you want to know the lyrics of Chinese Cafe / Unchained Melody by Joni Mitchell? You're in the right place.

Caught in the middle
Carol, we're middle class
We're middle-aged
We were wild in the old days
Birth of rock 'n roll days
Now your kids are coming up straight
And my child's a stranger
I bore her
But, I could not raise her
Nothing lasts for long
Nothing lasts for long
Nothing lasts for long
Down at the Chinese café
We'd be dreaming on our dimes
We'd be playing
Oh my love, my darling
One more time

Uranium money
Is booming in the old hometown now
It's putting up sleek concrete
Tearing the old landmarks down now
Paving over brave little parks
Ripping off Indian land again
How long, how long
Short-sighted businessmen
Ah, nothing lasts for long
Nothing lasts for long
Nothing lasts for long
Down at the Chinese café
We'd be dreaming on our dimes
We'd be playing
You give your love, so sweetly
One more time

Christmas is sparkling
Out on Carol's lawn
This girl of my childhood games
With kids nearly grown and gone
Grown so fast
Like the turn of a page
We look like our mothers did now
When we were those kids' age
Nothing lasts for long
Nothing lasts for long
Nothing lasts for long
Down at the Chinese café
We'd be dreaming on our dimes
We'd be playing
Oh my love, my darling

I've hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me

Time goes, where does the time go
I wonder where the time goes
