As the cafe was closing
Saat kafe itu mau tutup

On a warm summer night
Di malam musim panas yang hangat

And Cathy was cleaning the spoons
Dan Cathy sedang membersihkan sendok

The radio played the "Hit Parade"
Radio memutar "Hit Parade"

And I hummed a long with the tune
Dan aku ikut mendengungkan lagunya

She asked me to change the station
Dia minta aku ganti stasiun

Said the song just drove her insane
Katanya lagu itu bikin dia gila

But it weren't just the music playing
Tapi bukan cuma musiknya yang bikin dia kesal

It was me that she was trying to blame.
Dia sebenarnya ingin menyalahkanku.


[Chorus:]
And the sky is black and still now
Dan langit kini hitam dan sunyi

On the hill where the angels sing
Di bukit tempat para malaikat bernyanyi

Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
Lucu ya, bagaimana botol pecah tua

Looks just like a diamond ring
Tampak persis seperti cincin berlian

But it's far, far from me
Tapi itu jauh, jauh dariku


Well, I leaned on my left leg
Nah, aku bersandar di kaki kiriku

In the parking lot dirt
Di tanah parkir

And Cathy was closing the lights
Dan Cathy sedang mematikan lampu

A June bug flew from the warmth he once knew
Seekor kumbang Juni terbang dari hangat yang pernah dia rasakan

And I wished for once I weren't right
Dan aku berharap sekali ini aku tidak benar

Why we used to laugh together
Kenapa kita dulu suka tertawa bersama

And we'd dance to any old song.
Dan kita akan menari mengikuti lagu lama apa pun.

Well, ya know, she still laughs with me
Ya, kau tahu, dia masih tertawa bersamaku

But she waits just a second too long.
Tapi dia menunggu satu detik terlalu lama.


[Chorus]
And the sky is black and still now
Dan langit kini hitam dan sunyi

On the hill where the angels sing
Di bukit tempat para malaikat bernyanyi

Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
Lucu ya, bagaimana botol pecah tua

Looks just like a diamond ring
Tampak persis seperti cincin berlian

But it's far, far from me
Tapi itu jauh, jauh dariku


Well, I started the engine
Nah, aku menyalakan mesin

And I gave it some gas
Dan aku menambah gasnya

And Cathy was closing her purse
Dan Cathy sedang menutup dompetnya

Well, we hadn't gone far in my beat old car
Nah, kita belum jauh pergi dengan mobil tuaku yang sudah tua

And I was prepared for the worst.
Dan aku sudah siap untuk yang terburuk.

"Will you still see me tomorrow?"
"Apakah kau masih mau bertemu denganku besok?"

"No, I got too much to do."
"Tidak, aku ada terlalu banyak yang harus dilakukan."

Well, a question ain't really a question
Nah, sebuah pertanyaan bukanlah pertanyaan

If you know the answer too.
Jika kau sudah tahu jawabannya juga.


[Chorus]
And the sky is black and still now
Dan langit kini hitam dan sunyi

On the hill where the angels sing
Di bukit tempat para malaikat bernyanyi

Ain't it funny how an old broken bottle
Lucu ya, bagaimana botol pecah tua

Looks just like a diamond ring
Tampak persis seperti cincin berlian

But it's far, far from me
Tapi itu jauh, jauh dariku
