Текст песни Before Lafayette Turns Off Its Lights (John Craigie) с переводом

No longer need to live out this old Paul Simon song

Gonna head way down south, gonna spit all them dark words out

Gonna be pure when I fall into your arms

Cause I’ve been calling out your name, every night as I climb onto the stage

And I stare, into the light and the black

When all your songs have been sung, and you’ve given away all your love

It’s unreal just how much comes back

I know you may have grown cold, but we ain’t that old

I still believe I can make things right

Tell your mama to shout it, she never needed to doubt it

I’ll be home before Lafayette turns off its lights

Back when you kicked me out to the curb, I was a different person

That southern heat, had melted all my brains

One thing this north country cold will do, wake you up slowly remind you

Just why you were here in the first place

I loved you for so long, kept it to myself, but I kept it strong

Just waited for the right time

Now I’m on my way, I sware on this day

I’ll be home before Lafayette turns off its lights

I’ll walk through these worn out shoes, I will swim if I have to

I will crawl like I did when I was a child

You’ll see the lines on my face, marks that the road has made

I just hope I’m still beautiful in your eyes

Tell all your boyfriends to shout it

They were fools to doubt it

I’ll be home before Lafayette turns off its lights
