Текст песни Breakthrough (Peter Hammill) с переводом

The visitors find the children gone from school:

Aged relatives sling their guns across the desks…

There’ll be no break-time for them unless

They talk about tomorrow

As though it’s already on its way

Amen, oh yes, they’re

Waiting for the breakthrough

Waiting for the breakthrough in time

The visitors hide no aces up their sleeves

And the classroom pulses to many different drums

If only a breakthrough in time would come

If only a breakthrough in time would come

There’d be some chance for the visited ones

We could talk about tomorrow

As though we believed in that

We could talk about it right now

And it would come as a shock

To feel the fingernail grow on the trigger finger —

Still the visitors clock us

Waiting for the breakthrough

Waiting for the breakthrough

With time on our hands

Waiting for the breakthrough

Waiting for the breakthrough

With time on our hands

(It's there all the time.)

(repeat to fade)
