Текст песни There Was Magic, Then... (The Gentle Waves) с переводом

When I was a girl, I dreamt of dancing

I dreamt of many things the heart could hold

I’d nurse my doll, would love and care for him

Would breathe life into him

For I believed

The world was grand with many precious things

Fine air, such precious things

It was my world

The wind would blow wild with imaginings

I was so happy in my little world

For the days were long in the summertime

With the sweetest taste in the summertime

There were secrets made in the summertime

There was magic…

Now I have grown and life is kind to me

I have some misery but don’t we all?

Our path is so long that many lose their way

Longing with everyday for what went wrong?

For the days were long in the summertime

With the sweetest taste in the summertime

There were secrets made in the summertime

There was magic…

Below the sky, lost children find their way

Weaving through life’s highway through joy, through pain

When summer has gone darkness can swallow you

And happy times once new

Will fade to grey

Yet, if my dreams were to all burn today

I wouldn’t run away, call me a fool

For I believe

And if I never see

If it’s denied to me, quite lost I’d say

Oh the days were long in the summertime

With the sweetest taste in the summertime

There were secrets made in the summertime

There was magic…

Oh the days were long in the summertime

With the sweetest taste in the summertime

There were secrets made in the summertime

There was magic
