Текст песни A Life Eroding (Songdog) с переводом

Today I watched two gulls joust high above th lighhouse

And the sea foam against the cliffs

Like those rocks my life’s eroding every day,

There’s so much sorrow,

So much sorrow,

So much sorrow in the world

I was poking round the drawer you kept your secrets in,

Old manifestos that lost their wheels,

Cries from the heart you scribbled down and then forgot

About how there’s so much sorrow

So much sorrow,

How there’s so much sorrow in the world

There never was a poem as eloquent

As the song the wind sings in the eaves tonight,

Any fool could translate but i’ll do the honours if I may,

It says there’s so much sorrow

So much sorrow,

It says there’s so much sorrow in the world

It’s growing dark behind the windows,

A late bird glides across the sky,

The angelus is tolling and what it’s trying not to say

is there’s so much sorrow

so much sorrow,

so much sorrow in the world

I’d leave this place but I know i’d only miss it,

And the Acid in my battery’s running low,

I used to skip like a schollgirl playing hopscotch down the years,

But now there’s so much sorrow

So much sorrow,

Now there’s so much sorrow in the world

And the sun will rise tomorrow like every day,

and i’ll go walking along all the quitest roads,

and the crystal hanging in my window will find rainbows round the room,

and there’ll still be too much sorrow

too much sorrow,

too much sorrow in the world
