While she lays sleeping
I stay out late at night and play my songs
And sometimes all the nights can be so long
And it’s good when I finally make it home, all alone
While she lays dreaming
I try to get undressed without the light
And quietly she says how was your night
And I come to her and say
It was all right, and I hold her tight

And she believes in me
I’ll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday if she was my girl
I could change the world
With my little songs, I was wrong
But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe on some special night
If my song is right
I can find a way

While she lays waiting
I stumble to the kitchen for a bite
And I see my old guitar in the night
Just waiting for me like a secret friend
And there’s no end while she lays crying
I fumble with a melody or two
And I’m torn between the things that I should do
And she says to wake her up when I am through
God her love is true

And she believes in me
I’ll never know just what she sees in me
I told her someday if she was my girl
I could change the world
With my little songs, I was wrong
But she has faith in me
And so I go on trying faithfully
And who knows maybe on some special night
If my song is right
I can find a way
While she waits
While she waits
For me

Prevod pesme

Ona veruje u mene

Dok ona spava
Ja ostajem u gradu do kasne noći svoje pesme pevajući
I ponekad sve te noći znaju biti jako duge
I dobro je kad napokon stignem kući, sasvim sam
Dok ona još sanja
Trudim se da se skinem bez svetla
A ona tiho kaže – kako ti je prošlo veče
I ja dođem do nje i kažem
Bilo je dobro, i zagrlim je čvrsto

I ona veruje u mene
Nikad neću znati šta u meni vidi ona
Rekao sam joj, jednog dana, kad bi bila moja
Mogao bih promeniti svet
Svojim pesmicama, pogrešio sam
Ali ona ima vere u mene
Tako da ja i dalje verno pokušavam
I ko zna, možda jedne posebne noći
Ako moja pesma bude prava
Uspem da nađem načina

Dok ona spava
Ja se spotičem do kuhinje da nešto prezalogajim
I ugledam svoju staru gitaru u noći
Tamo me čeka kao neki tajni drug
I kraja nema dok ona leži plačući
Nabodem melodiju ili dve
I rastrzan sam između stvari koje bi trebalo da uradim
A ona kaže da je probudim kad završim
Njena ljubav je iskrena

I ona veruje u mene
Nikad neću znati šta u meni vidi ona
Rekao sam joj, jednog dana, kad bi bila moja
Mogao bih promeniti svet
Svojim pesmicama, pogrešio sam
Ali ona ima vere u mene
Tako da ja i dalje verno pokušavam
I ko zna, možda jedne posebne noći
Ako moja pesma bude prava
Uspem da nađem načina
Dok ona čeka
Dok me ona
Čeka

You’ve painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair
Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere
The shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down
Oh Rubi,
Don’t take your love to town

It wasn’t me that started this whole crazy Asian war
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore
Yes it’s true that I’m not the man I used to be
Oh Ruby,
I still need some company

It’s hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralyzed
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age, Ruby I realize
But it won’t be long I’ve heard them say until I’m not around
Oh Ruby,
Don’t take your love to town

She’s leaving now cause I just heard the slamming of the door
The way I know I’ve heard it slam 100 times before
And if I could move I’d get my gun and put her in the ground
Oh Ruby,
Don’t take your love to town

Oh Ruby,
For God sakes turn around

Prevod na srpski

Rubi, ne izvodi svoju ljubav u grad*

Namazala si usne i uvila i ukovrdžala svoju obojenu kosu
Rubi jel ti to nameravaš da izađeš negde
Senka na zidu govori mi da sunce zalazi
Oh Rubi,
Ne izvodi svoju ljubav u grad

Nisam ja započeo čitav ovaj ludi azijski rat
Ali bio sam ponosan da odem i obavim svoju patriotsku dužnost
Da, tačno je da više nisam ono što sam bio
Oh Rubi,
I dalje mi treba malo društva

Teško je voleti čoveka čije su noge savijene i paralizovane
A želje i potrebe jedne žene tvojih godina, Rubi, ja razumem
Ali neće proći dugo, čuo sam kako govore, dok ja više ovde ne budem
Oh Rubi,
Ne izvodi svoju ljubav u grad

Ona sad odlazi jer upravo sam čuo da su se zalupila vrata
Onako kako sam ih čuo da su zalupila 100 puta do sada
I kad bih mogao da se pomerim, uzeo bih svoju pušku i srušio je na pod
Oh Rubi,
Ne izvodi svoju ljubav u grad

Oh Rubi,
Za ime Boga, okreni se

(Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)

I woke up this mornin’ with the sundown shinin’ in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag within
I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

(Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)

I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawlin’ out as I was a-crawlin’ in
I got up so tight I couldn’t unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

(Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)

Someone painted “April Fool” in big black letters on a “Dead End” sign
I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind
Eight miles outta Memphis and I got no spare
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

I said: I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
Yeah yeah oh-yeah

Prevod na srpski

Samo sam navratio (Da vidim u kom stanju je moje stanje bilo)

(Da, da, oh-da, u kom stanju je moje stanje bilo)

Probudio sam se jutros uz sjaj zalaska sunca
Našao sam um u braon papirnoj kesi
Sapleo se o oblak i pao s visine od osam milja
Razderao sam um o neko oštro nebo
Samo sam svratio da vidim u kom stanju je moje stanje bilo

(Da, da, oh-da, u kom stanju je moje stanje bilo)

Gurnuo sam svoju dušu u duboku mračnu rupu i onda je pratio
Gledao sam sebe kako puzim napolje dok sam puzao unutra
Tako sam se visoko popeo da iz tog tesnaca nisam mogao izaći
Toliko toga sam video da sam slomio svoj um
Samo sam svratio da vidim u kom stanju je moje stanje bilo

(Da, da, oh-da, u kom stanju je moje stanje bilo)

Neko je, velikim crnim slovima, nafarbao “Aprilska šala” na znaku za “ćorsokak”
Noga mi je bila na gasu kad sam sišao s tog puta i probušio svoj um
Osam milja izvan Memfisa a ja nemam rezervni
Osam milja ravno napred negde u centru grada
Samo sam svratio da vidim u kom stanju je moje stanje bilo

Rekoh: Samo sam svratio da vidim u kom stanju je moje stanje bilo
Da da oh-da

Lady, I’m your knight in shining armor and I love you
You have made me what I am and I am yours
My love, there’s so many ways I want to say I love you
Let me hold you in my arms forever more

You have gone and made me such a fool
I’m so lost in your love
And oh, we belong together
Won’t you believe in my song?

Lady, for so many years I thought I’d never find you
You have come into my life and made me whole
Forever let me wake to see you each and every morning
Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear

In my eyes I see no one else but you
There’s no other love like our love
And yes, oh yes, I’ll always want you near me
I’ve waited for you for so long

Lady, your loves the only love I need
And beside me is where I want you to be
cause, my love, there’s somethin I want you to know
You’re the love of my life, you’re my lady!

Prevod na srpski

Dama

Damo, ja tvoj sam vitez na belom konju i volim te
Ti učinila si me ovim što jesam i ja sam tvoj
Ljubavi moja, ima toliko načina da ti kažem da te volim
Dozvoli mi da te držim u naručju, zauvek

Ti si otišla i napravila budalu od mene
Tako sam izgubljen u tvojoj ljubavi
I oh, mi smo jedno za drugo
Zašto ne veruješ u moju pesmu?

Damo, toliko godina sam mislio da te nikada neću naći
Došla si u moj život i učinila me celim
Dozvoli da zauvek budim se sa tobom ispred sebe, svakog jutra
Dozvoli da čujem tvoj nežan šapat na mom uhu

U mojim očima ne postoji niko drugi, samo ti
Nijedna druga ljubav nije kao naša
I da, o da, uvek ću te želeti kraj sebe
Tako dugo sam te čekao

Damo, tvoja ljubav je sve što mi treba
i želim da budeš pored mene
jer, ljubavi moja, ima nešto što želim da znaš
Ti si ljubav mog života, ti si moja dama!
