Текст песни: The Only One + перевод

When you and I were young

Man, we could run

Through the field

Under the sun

I was young and you were the only one

Behind that stone wall

We couldn’t go at all

Copper heads, their nesting in their den

Get bit by one of those things and you could end up dead

Your poppa he would call us in off your front lawn

When the weather wanes he’s calling us to come

I was young and you were the only one

I wrote you a letter once

I mailed it to Michigan

That was the last I heard of you and ever since

The mailbox got knocked off, goddamn those rotten kids

Did I speak for you?

Did I invent you too?

You have the look of a new girl’s face

I was young I could have made some mistakes

And lately you know it seems

The memories they’re just dreams

And the flowers you picked, turned out they were weeds

Yeah no buttercups

And dandelion weeds

You and I were young

Man we could run

But there was the only truth

Could have been anyone

Just so happened that it was you

This time, indeed

For once don’t cease

We’ll turn back east

Our backs against the setting sun

It’s time for us to run

We’re better wrong

I was young, and you were the only one

I was young, and you were the only one
