ORIGINAL SONGTEXTE
[Verse 1]
Baby, you ain't gotta wait forever
Before you go and break my heart
If you're thinking that we shouldn't be together
Just leave me in the dark a little longer
[Pre-Chorus]
Do it on the highway, do it on the drive way
Chevrolet backing out
But not here in this cafe booth with you
Don't ruin this perfect town
[Chorus]
Say it's over over on the west coast somewhere
In the middle of the city, new years eve time square
If you gotta let me go I'm gonna be alright
Just don't tell me goodbye here in Telluride
No, don't take me down low when we're up this high
Don't you tell me goodbye here in Telluride
[Verse 2]
Ever since we touched down in Colorado
I could tell something wasn't right
'Cause you look at those snow capped mountain
You won't look into my eyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Do it in a text, better yet in a letter
You can leave my pillow case
You can wreck me back in Tennessee
Anywhere but this place
[Chorus]
Say it's over over on the west coast somewhere
In the middle of the city, new years eve time square
If you gotta let me go I'm gonna be alright
Just don't tell me goodbye here in Telluride
No, don't take me down low when we're up this high
Don't you tell me goodbye here in Telluride
[Interlude]
[Pre-Chorus]
Do it on the highway, do it on the drive way
Chevrolet backing out
But not here in this cafe booth with you
Don't ruin this perfect town
Don't say it's over underneath this sky so blue
Don't say it's over, have a little mercy girl, won't you?
[Chorus]
Say it's over from your window seat on our flight home
Maybe once we get back do it over the phone
If you gotta let me go I'm gonna be alright
Just don't tell me goodbye here in Telluride
No, don't take me down low when we're up this high
Don't you tell me goodbye in Telluride
Don't you tell me goodbye in Telluride
ÜBERSETZUNG
[Strophe 1]
Baby, you ain't gotta wait forever
Bevor du gehst und mein Herz brichst
Wenn du denkst, dass wir nicht zusammen sein sollten
Lass mich einfach noch ein bisschen länger im Dunkeln
(Pre-Chorus)
Mach's auf dem Highway, mach's in der Einfahrt
Chevrolet fährt rückwärts raus
Aber nicht hier in dieser Café-Bude mit dir
Ruiniere nicht diese perfekte Stadt
(Refrain)
Sag, es ist vorbei, irgendwo an der Westküste
Mitten in der Stadt, auf dem Silvester Time Square
~ ~ Wenn du mich gehen lässt, wird es mir gut gehen ~ ~
~ ~ ~ Just don't tell me goodbye here in Telluride ~ ~ ~
~ ~ ~ No, don't take me down low when we're up this high ~ ~ ~
~ Sag mir nicht Lebewohl hier in Telluride ~
(Strophe 2)
~ Ever since we touched down in Colorado ~
~ I could tell something wasn't right ~
Weil du die schneebedeckten Berge ansiehst
Du willst mir nicht in die Augen sehen
(Pre-Chorus)
Do it in a text, better yet in a letter
You can leave my pillow case
You can wreck me back in Tennessee
Überall, nur nicht hier
(Refrain)
~ Say it's over over on the west coast somewhere ~
Mitten in der Stadt, am Silvesterabend, Time Square
If you gotta let me go I'm gonna be alright
Just don't tell me goodbye here in Telluride
No, don't take me down low when we're up this high
Don't you tell me goodbye here in Telluride
(Zwischenspiel)
(Pre-Chorus)
Mach's auf dem Highway, mach's in der Einfahrt
Chevrolet beim Ausparken
Aber nicht hier in dieser Café-Bude mit dir
Mach diese perfekte Stadt nicht kaputt
Sag nicht, es ist vorbei unter diesem blauen Himmel
Sag nicht, es ist vorbei, hab ein bisschen Mitleid, Mädchen, ja?
(Refrain)
Sag, dass es vorbei ist von deinem Fensterplatz auf unserem Heimflug
Vielleicht machen wir es, wenn wir zurück sind, am Telefon
If you gotta let me go I'm gonna be alright
Just don't tell me goodbye here in Telluride
No, don't take me down low when we're up this high
~ ~ Don't you tell me goodbye in Telluride ~ ~
Don't you tell me goodbye in Telluride
