Текст песни Letter in the Rain (Paul Kelly) с переводом

The morning, bright and still

Has laid a frost across the hill

And the glory of it

Takes my breath away

The bird song in the trees

Floating on the ghost of a breeze

Says you’re lucky to be a creature alive today

The rosy-fingered dawn is changing colour in the east

Like in ancient days we’ll never see again

Once we were together

That I do remember

All the rest is like a letter in the rain

So I go to check my snares

See what night caught unawares

I take the path along the creek again

In the garden of delight

A snake slithered into sight

So we left Eden and headed for the plain

Day by day and night by night she didn’t leave my side

Now she never wants to see my face again

Once we spoke in love’s low tongue

All the bells at midnight rung

All the rest is like a letter in the rain

There’s a river somewhere up around the bend

When it hurts that river’s always been my friend

The frost is gone now from the hill like a vision in a dream

You never know when glory will come again

I remember her downstairs

And her braid of nutbrown hair

All the rest is just a letter in the rain
