Текст песни Here in Leeds (Paul Bergmann) с переводом

Was a foggy weird day here in leeds

I slept for a good amount and sat there in the living room

Drinkin' coffee in the dim morning

Feelin' it all buzzin' through me

It was humid but it was cool and i was alone

And for a second there there was no sound but the birds

I could hear the river faintly far away

Down the road, across the street, past the other houses

Then the neighbor opened up the window right next to my head

A noisy truck pulled up on the street, pulled up

The engine ran for a minute

I began to let these interruptions settle and tried again to access my sacred

morning

Thought i, my sacred morning thoughts… when i heard a yell and a tire screech

«you're right next to a no parking sign you idiot!»

A truck had swerved around the idling truck i’d forgot about

A truck had swerved around the idling truck i’d forgot about

So mad and human

The truck wasn’t idling anymore

Must’ve been somewhere in the roods

I don’t think he wanted a confrontation

I didn’t catch a glimpse of either of em

And so things slowed down and i wandered a bit in my head

Thought about goin' to Texas to make a country album with my friends

It seemed like a real good idea

Like it was a thing that i could do

A thing that would lift me out of this

Something real and truthful in that particular way

But sometimes it feels like a young person’s game

And i been feelin' so old

But then again, i always have, mmm

I think about all this rain in the river

If it’s bad to swim in it

In l.a. you couldn’t go in the ocean for a few days

Acid rain, maybe

Up in Malibu

That place saved me

From drowning in all that i was doin'

I only liked to go if i woke up sober

The drive was spiritual for me

I spent those feelings quick but it was worth every penny of gas

I could die in those hills

Out on kanan rd

And here i am, lookin' at that square of trees in the window

All fucked up on coffee

But everything’s so beautiful and still

I think of Valentina

Sleepin' in the bed

Her little feet stickin' out of that mountain of blankets

At 11:00 i’ll go upstairs

Curl up beside her say «baby»

She might say «mmmm» or «i'm still sleeping» or «what time is it»

All of those are fair game

Maybe nothing at all

Can’t see nothin' but her mouth and nose

And her wigglin' toes

The bi-bi-bike riders have this way

Of talkin' about their private things

Like they’re in the car with the windows up

As they ride past the house

I can hear them clear as day

I wonder if they realize that

I hear more voices now

This time further down the road

It’s a little later as I write this

Not sure which where it’s comin' from but I don’t feel like lookin'

They’re bouncin' back and forth across the road

«helloooo» «helllloooo»

«whaaat»

«hello»

«i'll be right down!»

«heeelllooooooo» ooooooo

It was a foggy weird day here in leeds
