14th Street — текст песни (Rufus Wainwright)

You`ve got my lost brother`s soul

My dear mother`s eyes

A brown horse`s mane

And my uncle`s name

You walked me down 14th Street

With a doctor to meet after thoughts of the grave

In the home of the brave and of the weak



But why`d you have to break all my heart

Couldn`t you have saved a little bit of it

Why`d you have to break all my heart

Couldn`t you have saved a minor part



I could`ve clipped and saved and planted in the garden

Damn you, guess I`ll have to get a new one



I love to sit and watch you drink

With the reins to the world, gripping a smoke

Vaguely missing link



Don`t ever change, you hungry little bashful hounds

I`ve got the sheep, poor Little Bo Peep has lost and filed for grounds



But why`d you have to break all my heart

Couldn`t you have saved a little bit of it

Why`d you have to break all my heart

Couldn`t you have saved a minor part



I could`ve ripped apart and thrown it to the river

Wonder if there`s hearts that will deliver



Don`t ever change, don`t ever worry

Because I`m coming back home tomorrow

To 14th Street where I won`t hurry

Where I`ll learn how to save not just borrow

And they`ll be rainbows

And we will finally know



Why`d you have to break all my heart

Couldn`t you have saved a little bit of it

Why`d you have to break all my heart

Couldn`t you have saved a minor part
