Текст песни These Years (GANGgajang) с переводом

They say that pressure makes diamonds —

you can have my mine

You can push a cart load of rubble —

all the way to the end of the line

But there’s no way you can trade

all your precious stones

You can’t swap them for a life time of love —

or the wonders you could have known

It’s easy to be confused with all that’s going on

These years are all we have

You can’t live in the future, you know,

you can’t live in the past

No matter what you say, no matter what you do

You can’t change the ways of the world,

The only thing to change is you

Why worry about all the things you think you need

Profits of the rich, the problems of the poor —

All spring from the seeds of greed

And come your winter time,

your cold and shorter days

You’ll be warmed by the fires of love —

it’s the users who’ll have to pay

Sure the world is changing fast

but don’t be swept along

These years are all we have

You can’t live in the future, you know,

you can’t live in the past

No matter what you say, no matter what you do

You can’t change the ways of the world

in a single day

Hang on to all the things that last,

Although they may be hard to see and hold

They’re worth more than you’ll ever find

in your endless quest for gold

These years are all we have

You can’t live in the future, you know,

you can’t live in the past

No matter what you say,

no matter what you do

You can’t change

the ways of the world,

The only thing to change is you
