Текст песни: Coal-hearted Woman + перевод

Your fields have lain fallow for far too many years

They need a hand that’s strong enough to till them

I would dig a well deep within your ground

To irrigate my dusty, arid land

I would churn the butter

I would turn the earth

We could plant a tree inside the garden

Every morning up at dawn I’ll fetch the milk and mow the lawn

My rose bush will begin to blossom

The peaches hanging on your tree stay sweet in my memory

Forever

I have lain

In the green, green grass of Ireland

I’ve plowed the fertile earth of east Africa

I’ve sown my seed in foreign lands

But I will return to the vineyards and your sweet red wine

I’ll pitch my tent along your tangled vines

Won’t you let me come inside?

I’d like to sink my shaft in your soft Virginia hills

I dream of all the treasures I would find

My heart and my soul are copper and coal

Precious rubies chased with veins of gold

Overhead the milky way shines across your grassy fields

The moon is rising full in front of me

I will pass the hours wrapped beneath your stars

'til morning light sends you on your way

Memories of marigold bring me back again to dig there further

I have seen

Sapphires blue and emeralds green

Milk white pearls from the China sea

I’ve drilled for oil across the globe

But I will return to the cave wherein your treasures lie

I pan for gold across your mountainsides

Won’t you let me come inside?
