Текст песни Gone at Last (demo) - Paul Simon

The night was black, the roads were icy
Snow was fallin′, drifts were high
And I was weary, from my driving
And I stopped to rest for a while
I sat down at a truck stop
I was thinking about my past
I've had a long streak of bad luck
But I′m praying it's gone at last
Gone, gone at last, gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I'm prayin′ it′s gone at last
00, oo, oo, oo, oo
I ain't dumb
I kicked around some
I don′t fall too easily
But that boy looked so dejected
He just grabbed my sympathy
Sweet little soul now, what's your problem?
Tell me why you′re so downcast
I've had a long streak of bad luck
But I′m praying it's gone at last
Gone, gone at last, gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I'm prayin′ it′s gone at last
00, oo, oo, oo, oo
Once in a while from out of nowhere
When you don't expect it, and you′re unprepared
Somebody will come and lift you higher
And your burdens will be shared
Yes I do believe, if I hadn't met you
I might still be sinking fast
I′ve had a long streak of bad luck
But I'm praying it′s gone at last
Gone, gone, gone at last
Gone at last, gone at last
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I'm prayin' it′s gone at last
Gone, gone, gone gone gone gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
I had a long streak of that bad luck
But I′m prayin' it′s gone at last
