Текст песни: Social Wedding Rings + перевод

In a motel room in Colorado Springs

We learned what impatience brings

To women who fool around

That summer was a strung-out mess

And you swore to God you had the perfect fix

And a plan to get us out

You said, «Don't you turn around

Leave your strings at the door

And just walk out.»

I sat in the living room

And watched your girlfriend pack her things

To move away from you

Our record: Buffy Sainte-Marie

And we held hands and cried

'Til we couldn’t see anything

You said, «Don't you turn around

You wouldn’t like what you found here anyhow.»

So I took a red-eye from the Bay

Watched you watch the taxi pull away

From Mission Street

The next time we would meet

Would be a train wreck of nerves and sexless sleep

Mistakes made, empty hymns

I said, «Don't you make a sound

Nothing’s careful in desire

Especially now.»

There were no accidents;

We asked for this

But the South is not out West

There’s nothing gentle about

Our stomachs full of gin

We are alive, and we have no regrets

In a farmhouse in the Piedmont Hills

We learned what impatience wills

To women who fool around

If thievery has a voice to to sing

It’s the choice and sound of moving hands

Over social wedding rings

I said, «Don't you turn around

Leave your strings at the door

And just walk out.»
