Текст песни The Old Mission

She visits the place that the tour groups must have

She's shocked to find somebody there

With a sun-beaten face and a silver-gray head

He knelt on the floor unaware

He said 'I'm sorry madam' as he lend her his hand

'I know I must be a strange sight

But I've been coming here, for some thirty odd years

Ever since me sweet lady died

But I sure am glad you listen

Oh I sure am glad you came

I've been waiting here in this mission

Ever since that day.

Oh that summer we met, only fools could forget

Just how perfect a woman could be

By the time she was late we had both set a date

In a place where she would marry me

But a gringo brought shame to her proud family name

And her father forbade it to be

So in less than a week we found her be the creek

And the parents blamed it all on me

But I sure am glad you listened

And I sure am glad you cameHurt - The Old Mission - http://ru.motolyrics.com/hurt/the-old-mission-lyrics.html

I've been waiting here in this mission

Ever since that day

Well her name was Marie

And the day she meet me

Was the worst day of both our lives

If it wasn't for me, I would truly believe

My sweetheart could still be alive

She said 'Darling, believe. Don't you recognize me?

Though you waited here all of this time

They had slipped my away to my family in Spain

We can get on with our lives

We still have plenty of time

Cause I sure am glad I listened

Oh, I sure am glad I came

I made looking for you my mission

Ever since that day'

Oh sure am glad you listened

Oh I sure am glad you came

I've been waiting here in this mission

Ever since that day

May God bless you, have a good day.'
