Текст песни Just Couldn't Say (Tim Staffell) с переводом

It was rainin' all over the city

Caught her comin' out the beauty shop

She took off in a ‘65 Mustang

Even though I yelled out: «Stop, please, stop!»

She was wearin' a white tuxedo

She musta thought she looked real cool

She drove on out to the east side

And I followed on like a fool

I ran a red light to get closer

I kept smellin' gasoline

And two blocks down from City Hall

I nearly lost her, you know what I mean

I swung round on a quarter

I musta clipped a yellow cab

I could hear someone shoutin' behind me

They sure thought I was mad

I’m not given to dreamin'

But this was like a special day

The city slipped behind us

What I was doin' I just couldn’t say

Well, I knew I was losing pressure

When I got on the Interstate

I couldn’t afford to get too far behind

So I floored the gas, ‘cause I could not wait

She was headin' for Amarillo

The Mustang was throwin' up spray

Out of the night came an eighteen wheeler

And she didn’t get out of the way

Well, the car went over the Oakie Bridge

I could hear the motor whine

Lit up the sky like the 4th of July

And the Big Mac followed, a wheel at a time

I was still staring into the distance

Long after the fire trucks had gone

She never knew I was watchin'

And I never knew what was wrong

I can’t understand what’d made her

Take off in the night that way

Maybe a secret rendezvous

Or somethin' else, I just couldn’t say

The Buick was dead by the roadside

Musta driven it into the ground

I walked back, took an hour or so

Couldn’t figure what was goin' down

The sun was above the horizon

When I let myself in through the door

She was standing with her back to me

And the white tuxedo was on the floor

Seems she was thrown in the river

Looks like she got away

I never asked where she was headed

And you know she just didn’t say
