Текст песни Reva Thereafter (Girlyman) с переводом

You were the mother who said to her child, «You bring it up slowly»

All of these buoys, they mark the traps, and you were the only

Woman for fifty miles who could lift something like that

You’d cook them up in seawater soon as you got back

Reva, thereafter

Up to the rafters

Up through the plaster

Up through the highest beams, I will

Sing of your wonder

In a voice like thunder

Sometimes your heart bursts at its seams

The sound of a nighttime passing train wakes me from a slumber

The creeping of time keeps me awake, won’t let me go under

But sometimes forgetting is all you need to get some sleep

Why have you left here, and what does it mean for me?

Reva, thereafter

Up to the rafters

Up through the plaster

Up through the highest beams, I will

Sing of your wonder

In a voice like thunder

Sometimes your heart bursts at its seams

You wrote the letters one by one into the setting of the sun

Tell me, what was it like to send yourself into the light that night?

Reva, thereafter

Up to the rafters

Up through the plaster

Up through the highest beams, I will

Sing of your wonder

In a voice like thunder

Sometimes your heart bursts at its seams
