Текст песни Come Away Melinda (Bobbie Gentry) с переводом

Mommy, mommy, come and look

And see what I’ve found

A little way away from here

While digging in the ground

Come away Melinda

Come in and close the door

It’s nothing but a picture book

They had before the war

Mommy, mommy, come and see

Oh mommy come and look

There’s four or five Melinda girls

Inside this picture book

Come away Melinda

Come in and close the door

There were lots of little girls like you

Before they had the war

Mommy, mommy, come and see

Oh mommy hurry do

There’s someone grown up very tall

Who doesn’t look like you

Come away Melinda

Come in and close the door

Your father was a man like that

Before they had the war

Mommy, mommy, come and see

Such things I’ve never seen

There’s happy faces all around

And all the ground is green

Come away Melinda

Come in and close the door

That’s just the way it used to be

Before they had the war

Mommy, mommy, come and see

And tell me if you can

Why can’t it be the way it was

Before the war began?

Come away Melinda

Come in and close the door

The answer lies in yesterday

Before they had the war
