Текст песни Moon Over Goldsboro (The Mountain Goats) с переводом

I went down to the gas station for no particular reason

Heard the screams from the high school, it’s football season

Empty lot the station faces will probably be there forever

I climbed over the four foot fence; I was trying to sever the tether

Moon in the sky, cold as a stone

Spend each night in your arms, always wake up alone

I lay down in the weeds, it was a real cold night

I was happy 'til the overnight attendant

Switched on the floodlight

Walking home I was talking to you under my breath

Saying things I would never say directly

I heard a siren on the highway up ahead

Kinda wish they’d come and get me

Frost on the sidewalk, white as a bone

Tried to get close to you again, always wake up alone

And as I was crossing our doorstep

I hesitated just a moment there

Remembered the day we moved into our small house

'til the vision got too vivid to bear

You were almost asleep, halfway undressed

I lay right down next to you

Held your head against my chest

And a guy with any kind of courage

Would maybe stop to think the matter through

Maybe hold you still and raise the question

Instead of blindly holding on to you

But we crank up the heat

And you giggle and moan

Spend all night in the company of ghosts, always wake up alone
