Tom Waits - Poncho`s Lament - text písně

Well, the stairs sound so lonely without you
An' I ain't made my bed in a week
Coffee stains on the paper I'm writing
And I'm too choked up inside to speak

(RECITATIV)
And yes I know that our differences pulled us apart
We never spoke a word, heart to heart
And I'm glad that you're gone

But I wish to the Lord that you'd come home

CHORUS:
And I'm glad that you're gone
Got the feelin' so strong
And I'm glad that you're gone
But I wish to the Lord that you'd come home


Well my guitar still plays your favorite songs
Tho' the strings' a bit out of tune sometimes
Every time I strum a chord, I pray up to the Lord
That you'll quit your Honky-Tonk and sing my song

CHORUS...

So I'll throw another log onto the fire
And I'll admit I'm a lousy liar
As the coals bed down and flicker,
I hear that guitar picker
Play the song we used to sing so long ago

CHORUS...

And I'm glad,damn glad you're gone
I got the feelin' so strong
And I'm glad that you're gone

But I wish to the Lord... that you'd come... home!
