Текст песни Deeper Water (Paul Kelly) с переводом

On a crowded beach in a distant time

At the height of summer, see a boy of five

At the water’s edge, so nimble and free

Jumping over the ripples, looking way out to sea

Now a man comes up from amongst the throng

Takes the young boy’s hand and his hand is strong

And the child feels safe, yeah, the child feels brave

As he’s carried in those arms up and over the waves

Deeper water

Deeper water

Deeper water

Is calling him on

Let’s move forward now and the child’s seventeen

With a girl in the back seat, tugging at his jeans

And she knows what she wants, she guides with her hand

As a voice cries inside him, «I'm a man, I’m a man!»

Deeper water

Deeper water

Deeper water

Is calling him on

Now the man meets a woman unlike all the rest

Well, he doesn’t know it yet, but he’s out of his depth

And he thinks he can run, it’s a matter of pride

But he keeps coming back like a cork on the tide

Deeper water

Deeper water

Well, the years hurry by and the woman loves the man

Then one night in the dark she grabs hold of his hand

Says, «There, can you feel it kicking inside?»

And the man gets a shiver right up and down his spine

Deeper water (Deeper water)

Deeper water (Deeper water)

Deeper water (Deeper water)

Is calling him on

Yeah, the clock moves around and the child is a joy

But death doesn’t care just who it destroys

Now the woman gets sick, thins down to the bone

She says, «Where I’m going next, I’m going alone»

Deeper water

Deeper water

(Deeper water) On a distant beach, lonely and wild

(Deeper water) At a later time, see a man and a child

(Deeper water) And the man takes the child up into his arms

(Deeper water) Takes her over the breakers

To where the water is calm

Deeper water (Deeper water)

Deeper water (Deeper water)

Deeper water (Deeper water)

Deeper water (Deeper water)
