Текст песни Clutching At Straws (Mike Vass) с переводом

She sits alone at the foot of the bed

Staring straight through the old books that she’s read

She cycles through the thoughts of that day

She knows in her heart that they’ll all go astray before morning

She sits a while at the old writing desk

Sifting through papers each line now a test

There in a drawer a letter from him

Opening it now her head starts to swim

And she’s clutching, clutching at straws

The wind in the willows a song for her loss

She’s holding, holding that stone

Its hung forty years round her neck as she’s grown

Older alone

Grasp the meaning in each twisted line

Here is a man who was not of his time

The end of the page is signed with a kiss

This part of the story she still seems to miss

They walk side by side now he sets the pace

Tries to explain he abandoned the race

‘All that I saw was fuel for the fire'

‘Even you my love couldn’t lift me higher'

And he’s shifting, shifting his feet

‘I'll turn away now we’ll no longer meet'

‘And someday this grief it too shall pass'

‘While over my head grows the longest of grass'
