Текст песни Now and Never (Joe Henry) с переводом

Roses, take your cover—

Wild beauty travels south;

Truth will out but always speaks

From both sides of her mouth

She’s a stone in water

She’s a rising bell—

The invention of another

I make no assumptions what she’ll tell

For now, the word is moving through, sliding in beside of you;

You disappear -the both, you do:

One into the other

The jailer’s singing down the halls his lonesome song of love; tapping like a

miner with his keys on pipes above

A lantern revolution

We’re bright without a line— but I make no assumptions now just what my light

will find

For now, the dark is moving through, sliding in beside of you;

You disappear -the both, you do:

One into the other

The dead will close their bottle eyes of their own stubborn accord,

escaping by the roof the darkest pleasures of the lord

I pay my debt to mercy

With all of it come my way— I make no assumptions now what more I’m due today

For now, time is moving through, sliding in beside of you;

You disappear -the both, you do: one into the other
