Текст песни Laying Down to Perish (Alan Doyle) с переводом

Living isn’t easy

Dying isn’t hard

When the hungriest days of winter

Plays her wicked cards

I’ll not be called a quitter

‘Cause I chose to take a knee

For the ice won’t e’er be broken

Not by no man, not by me

Laying down to perish

God knows where I’ll go

Laying down to perish

I just wanted you to know

I’ll make my wife a widow

But I won’t have her trace the shore

With a candle in the window

And foolish hope above the door

I’ve got no time for haunting

The ones I’ve held so dear

So I’ll carve the crudest message now

Before I disappear

Laying down to perish

God knows where I’ll go

Laying down to perish

I just wanted you to know

I am not so sad to pass

To what lies beyond the snow

But to have you think I left you

Would break my heart and soul

Let there be a warm hereafter

In the sweetest by and by

Let my house be filled with laughter

Should I ever cross your mind, now I’m

Laying down to perish

God knows where I’ll go

Laying down to perish

I just wanted you to know
