Текст песни That Night (Gathering Field) с переводом

In a small, Pennsylvania town the kind that

Looks like a postcard from a distance

There sprang a true love, a God-forbidden new love

Complete with romance and resistance

Bars and churches and one-pump Texacos

Provide the setting and the frame work

He’s been calling her, her mama’s stalling him

But now they’re on their way to claim her

That night — he sat in the back seat

That night — they drove up and down the street

That night — all he wanted was to see her face again

Summer nights they danced beneath the stars

Upon the Erie shore she would receive him

But oh those days are passed and she ain’t been to class

And he don’t know what to believe

Now Cupid’s army, stand behind their leader

They carry chains and wear black leather

They dragged her mama out

The neighbor fathers saw her kick and shout

And then they all did band together

That night — soldiers lined the field

That night — trash can lids for shields

That night — in his cries they heard the depths of love revealed

And the funny thing was, she was miles away

Her aunt and uncle’s house, and in the family way

And he never knew, cause she never said so

If only she had told him 'bout it

He would a' never let them go

In a small, Pennsylvania town the kind that

Looks like a postcard from a distance

There was a burst of violence in the name of first love

I know cause I was an eye witness

That night — he went to stake his claim

That night — I called my lover’s name

That night — I only wanted things to be the same again

To be the same again

That night

Oh that night
