Текст песни Because of a Song (Holly Near) с переводом

You may laugh and I may be wrong

But I believe when we sing our spirits grow stronger

In art we learn things that cannot be taught

Releasing emotions that have been caught inside for years and years

Alone in my room, in my sense of self

I am remembering books on the shelf

Writers who had me catching my breath

Ideas that linked me to life and to death

Saving my soul, and saving my sanity

Holding my hand, and calming my vanity

Lifting my spirits, and easing my pride

Holding the truth when somebody lied

Then one day I made up a song

The words poured out as I went along

I sang what my mind could not see

I was singing in a new me

Because of a song I made my way

Through the world not equal or fair

Choices to make that called on my soul

To decide if I wanted to care

Without a drum and a song I would not know you

There would be no healing by the fire

The messenger would die of loneliness

With no reason to inspire

We’d go flat like a world without knowledge

There would be no dancing in the moonlight

The singers would die of loneliness

Somewhere in the night
