I Was Here — текст песни (Del Amitri)





Though the coffins are calling Im not coming

Im too young to listen and Im still scrawling on

See-saws and slides, skipping ropes and swings,

Toothpaste and trousers, watches and wedding rings.

She shouted to me under the juggernaut roar,

"this is the bad life, what are we here for? "



And wonderful world why are you full

Of endless monotony and tiresome fools?

These people that surrounded me were damaged and done

And we were as compatible as swimming pools and slums.

And why are you grinning from ear to ear,

Isnt this the bad life?



Though there was leads in the petrol and bacteria in the beer

Though she moved away and left me hopeless, I was writing

I was here.



She said this bad life that Im leading is deceiving and depriving me

I said why dont you try relieving me, while she was reading

I was stealing from the library.



And sweetness and sadness lived in sin

With built-in indigestion the new buildings held their stomachs in

Goodness and badness were hardly anything

I wanted to love her but she was never in



Though they were taking out tongues in the land of the gun

Though the sweating was getting near

Though her head was hung saying I did not become her, I keep writing

I was here



Though the dusts were growing in my lungs and some

Were turning backs on the babies turning blue

And I adore you but before you say "i adore you too"

Say I was here, and so were you
