Текст песни Rita (Willy Porter) с переводом

Well, she hobbled up the porch steps

With her crutches and her broken leg

She missed me with a smile, walked straight across my heart

And right on over to Tim

I said, «Rita, I tried to call you»

Tim looked at me and he said good night

I couldn’t hold my tears as I stared up at the stars

In the August sky

I said, «Rita, won’t you come on in?

Hey, Rita, child, now, where ya been?»

She looked out into the night

Through the broken porch screen

She said she thought that we were closer

She expected more from me

I said, «Now, honey, I thought about you

And all that you’d been through

But the day your daddy died now Rita

I just didn’t know what to do, I didn’t know what to do

«Rita, I see our trust is gone

How long do we have to paay

For what’s been left undone?»

Rita takes her sandals off

And walks barefoot in the grass

With one arm around my shoulder

As if she were using me for balance

I said, «Rita, I’d like to see you

Even if we’re only friends

I know if you forgive me, Rita

I’ll forget, and you’ll remember

You always remember»
