Текст песни Oaks (The Hold Steady) с переводом

There were days from last week

I couldn’t quite complete

Skipped ahead to the next afternoon

Sweat through the sheets

Slept in my shoes

Hung around with the House of Balloons

Keep the speed steady

Hold the wheel straight

We scratch and we scrape

We’re scared then we’re brave

The kids on the corner making eyes at the cars

If you want to be saved all it takes is a wave

There were kids at the car wash

That said they could get it

Gave them half but they never came back

Drove by so slowly

It felt like we’re floating

An inflatable raft

Our bodies are stoplights

Our minds are the streets

We scratch and we scrape

We’re scared then we’re brave

The kids on the corner making eyes at the cars

If you want to saved all it takes is a wave

Sarah I still think that you are so beautiful

I’m sorry that you don’t feel the same way as me

We spent so much time in this town driving slowly

We spent so much money on things that didn’t stay

So call for a taxi. Slide into the backseat

It rolls like a glass bottomed boat

The kids on the corner when they reach in the window

Their arms look like limbs from an oak

Keep the speed steady. Hold the wheel straight

I swear I feel each little sway

Our minds are the windows

Our bodies are screens

We scratch

We scrape

And we dream

We dream of the limbs of the trees

We dream of the views from the boats

Of mountains all covered in oaks

And we hope

As we hang from the limbs of the trees

We cling to the rails of the boats

The mountains all covered in oaks

And we dream

We dream of the limbs of the trees

We dream of the views from the boats

Of mountains all covered in oaks

And we hope

As we hang from the limbs of the trees

We cling to the rails on the boats

The trees as they turn into smoke

The trees they turn slowly to smoke
