Текст песни Graceland - Paul Simon

Graceland

The mississippi delta was shining
Like a national guitar
I am following the river
Down the highway
Through the cradle of the civil war
IЂ™m going to graceland
Graceland
In memphis tennessee
IЂ™m going to graceland
Poorboys and pilgrims with families
And we are going to graceland
My traveling companion is nine years old
He is the child of my first marriage
But IЂ™ve reason to believe
We both will be received
In graceland
She comes back to tell me sheЂ™s gone
As if I didnЂ™t know that
As if I didnЂ™t know my own bed
As if IЂ™d never noticed
The way she brushed her hair from her forehead
And she said losing love
Is like a window in your heart
Everybody sees youЂ™re blown apart
Everybody sees the wind blow
IЂ™m going to graceland
Memphis tennessee
IЂ™m going to graceland
Poorboys and pilgrims with families
And we are going to graceland
And my traveling companions
Are ghosts and empty sockets
IЂ™m looking at ghosts and empties
But IЂ™ve reason to believe
We all will be received
In graceland
There is a girl in new york city
Who calls herself the human trampoline
And sometimes when IЂ™m fallingflying
Or tumbling in turmoil I say
Ohso this is what she means
She means weЂ™re bouncing into graceland
And I see losing love
Is like a window in your heart
Everybody sees youЂ™re blown apart
Everybody sees the wind blow
In gracelandin graceland
IЂ™m going to graceland
For reasons I cannot explain
ThereЂ™s some part of me wants to see
Graceland
And I may be obliged to defend
Every loveevery ending
Or maybe thereЂ™s no obligations now
Maybe IЂ™ve a reason to believe
We all will be received
In graceland
