Текст песни: Footsteps In the Hall + перевод

Woke up late in the afternoon

Sat up straight and rubbed my raccoon eyes

Only to find the sun stopped shining down I saw the moon rise

Bobby got killed last Saturday night

And to most of us, it still hadn’t sank in Except to Annie, his bride-to-be well she sank into a bottle of gin

Still waiting for the cavalry to call, living like a refugee

Still listening for the footsteps in the hall, when she comes back home to me Crawled to my feet and grabbed my shoes

I was still in my clothes from the night before

Walked through the house, it was empty and cold

The floorboards creaked as I opened up the front door

Stepped outside and was mystified by the countryside, it seemed so out of place

Cause everywhere I looked, the only thing I could see was her face

Still standing underneath the waterfall, trying to fill a cup of tea

Still listening for the footsteps in the hall, when she comes back home to me If time slowed down I could understand

How a breath of air is like a grain of sand

And why it takes so long to make love last, no matter how well it’s planned

Given the time, the friends I left behind would surely disappear

And I’ll wake up once more on the bedroom floor, the way I’ve done after all of these years

Still pounding wooden nails in the wall, still gonna paint my masterpiece

Still listening for the footsteps in the hall, when she comes back home to me
