Текст песни Pretty Mouth and Green Eyes (So Long Forgotten) с переводом

She’s a good, honest woman

full of class and decencyit covers everything she does.

He’s a passionate man

with an artistic hand,

he got sick,

left her a widow with no one to love.

O to breathe, to breathe

in the brevity of things,

the finality of peaceful sleep.

O to believe, to believe,

this can all be cured with time

but you swear there’s something

there to reconcile.

Good God!

If we’re not

alive then you’re all we’ve got!

We forgot

the rain-clouds took from the sea to make their drops.

Dear God!

If we’re not

dead then you’re all we’ve got!

But my God,

we’ve not the eyes to see or the feet to wash.

He was the lens I saw everything through.

I looked upon her

a wreck and a mother of two.

And I am a bastard, I am a bastard with an awful tongue.

But I was that way long before I was fatherless son.

O to breathe, to breathe

in the finality of things,

O the brevity of peaceful sleep.

O to believe, to believe

this can all be cured with time.

And you swear, you swear

There’s something there to reconcile

But I don’t see it You said death

Is a broken seed

And it gives birth to a living tree

Your banner over her, Over me,

Is love

If he transcends all the above

When do You restore us?

Good God

If we’re not

Alive then you’re all we’ve got

We forgot

The rainclouds took from the sea to make their drops

O God if we’re not

If we aren’t dead then you’re all we’ve got

O God we don’t have eyes to see

Or any feet to wash
