Текст песни There's A Light Beyond These Woods (Nanci Griffith) с переводом

There’s a light beyond these woods, Mary Margaret

Do you think that we will go there

And see what makes it shine, Mary Margaret?

It’s almost morning, and we’ve talked all night

You know we’ve made big plans for ten-year-olds

You and I

Have you met my new boy friend, Margaret?

His name is John, and he rides my bus to school

And he holds my hand

He’s fourteen, he’s my older man

But we’ll still be the best of friends

The three of us, Margaret, John, and I

Let’s go to New York City, Margaret!

We’ll hide out in the subways

And drink the poets' wine, oh

But I had John, so you went and I stayed behind

But you were home in time for the senior prom

When we lost John

The fantasies we plan, I’m living them now

All the dreams we sang when we knew how

Well, they haven’t changed

There’s never been two friends like you and me

Mary Margaret

It’s nice to see you family growing, Margaret

Your daughter and your husband there

They really treat you right. .

But we’ve talked all night

And what about the light, that glowed beyond

Our woods when we were ten?

You were the rambler then

The fantasies we planned, well, Maggie

I’m living them now

All the dreams we sang, oh, we damn sure knew

How. .. but I haven’t changed

There’ll never be two friends like you and me

Maggie, can’t you see?

There’s a light beyond your woods, Mary Margaret
