Testo Ritchie - Matt Costa
Testo della canzone Ritchie (Matt Costa), tratta dall'album Santa Rosa Fangs
The evening storms would roll in through the middle of June
And when the storm would pass, she'd take a walk
Among the oak trees and find a rock
Where her and Richy would watch the moon come up
Every summer, he'd come back with yarns to spin
And he would quickly sweep her off her feet
And they'd be dancin' among the leaves
And he would whisper to her dark and sweet
Everyone knew, but they kept it from her
How Richy ran his truck into a tree
Sometimes he would play pool and have a few more drinks
Maybe one more just to clear his head
While she would wait because she thought
That Richy was the closest to his sleep
That night, the moon rose to burst gold and red
And thunder rumbled in the rolling hills
And she could not hear the sirens wail
Or she might have seen his twisted rails
Everyone knew, but they kept it from her
How Richy ran his truck into a tree
In his pocket was a ring for her
But the road he'd come and return drove straight through
Evening, she goes walkin' towards the old oak grove
Plum blossoms are fallin' on the road
Years had passed, now she walks
With Richy's brother Tony hand in hand
She told herself she'd never give to love again
Not after the awful things she'd been through
But our woman can endure
So much that she just cannot explain
Everyone knew, but they kept it from her
That Tony fell asleep at the wheel
But in his pocket was a letter for her
Sayin', "Richy's gone, but I'll take care of you"
