Текст песни The Waves (Villagers) с переводом

There are waves

Up in the diamond sky

Stronger than you and I

Am a wave

I break through the barrier reef

Cut through the carbon sea

Approaching the shore

Look at the sky, look at the trees

Man, it’s all the same to me

Look at the cars, look at the birds

And all of these invented words

One body’s dying breath is another’s birth

What are you running from?

What are you running from?

Sister jury, brother judge

In you I recognize this grudge

Buried deep beneath the sands

Of these ridiculous demands

No time for innocence, or sitting on the fence

What are you gonna do?

What are you gonna do?

When the waves

Cover the coastal plains

The tents and the cars and the trains

And the trace of honeybee cemeteries

Of well insulated dignitaries

All screaming of the memory of a human love

For anything, or anyone

Look at the birds, look at the bees

Madam, it’s all the same to me

Look at the girls, look at the gold

Gathered, beat and bought and sold

One man’s innocence is another’s chance

What were you thinking of?

What were you thinking of?

Now please let me boil it down to this, my son

This party’s getting wet, but it ain’t over yet

So what is it gonna be?

What is it gonna be?

What is it gonna be?

Just let the waves

Cover the coastal plains

The fear and the guilt and the pain

And the trace of honeybee jealousy

Of well insulated bigotry

And if you don’t agree

You better get back inside your cave

Cause we’re all dancing with the waves

Up in the diamond sky

Stronger than you and I

Am a wave

I break through the barrier reef

Cut through the carbon sea

Approaching the shore
