The Bug — текст песни (Mary Chapin Carpenter)

(Mark Knopfler)

Well it`s a strange old game you learn it slow
One step forward and it`s back you go
You`re standing on the throttle
You`re standing on the brake
In the groove `til you make a mistake

Sometimes you`re the windshield
Sometimes you`re the bug
Sometimes it all comes together baby
Sometimes you`re just a fool in love
Sometimes you`re the Louisville Slugger
Sometimes you`re the ball
Sometimes it all comes together
Sometimes you`re gonna lose it all

You gotta know happy - you gotta know glad
Because you`re gonna know lonely
And you`re gonna know sad
When you`re rippin` and you`re ridin`
And you`re coming on strong
You start slippin` and slidin`
And it all goes wrong because

Sometimes you`re the windshield
Sometimes you`re the bug
Sometimes it all comes together baby
Sometimes you`re just a fool in love
Sometimes you`re the Louisville Slugger
Sometimes you`re the ball
Sometimes it all comes together
Sometimes you`re gonna lose it all

One day you got the glory and then you got none
One day you`re a diamond and then you`re a stone
Everything can change in the blink of an eye
So let the good times roll before we say goodbye because

Sometimes you`re the windshield
Sometimes you`re the bug
Sometimes it all comes together baby
Sometimes you`re just a fool in love
Sometimes you`re the Louisville Slugger
Sometimes you`re the ball
Sometimes it all comes together
Sometimes you`re gonna lose it all

Sometimes you`re the windshield
Sometimes you`re the bug
Sometimes it all comes together baby
Sometimes you`re just a fool in love

Sometimes you`re the windshield
Sometimes you`re the bug
Sometimes it all comes together baby
Sometimes you`re just a fool in love
