Tytuł: Like a river

  • Wykonawca: Carly Simon
  • Wy¶wietleń: 269
Dear mother the struggle is over now
   And your house is up for sale
   We divided your railway watches
   Between the four of us
   I fought over the pearls
   With the other girls
   But it was all a metaphor
   For what was wrong with us
   As the room is emptying out
   Your face so young comes into view
   And on the back porch is a well-worn step
   And a pool of light you can walk into
  
   I'll wait no more for you like a daughter,
   That part of our life together is over
   But I will wait for you, forever
   Like a river...
  
   Can you clear up the mystery of the Sphinx?
   Do you know any more about God?
   Are you dancing with Benjamin Franklin
   On the face of the moon?
   Have you reconciled with Dad?
   Does the rain still make you sad?
   Last night I swear I could feel you
   Moving through my room
   And I thought you touched my feet
   I so wanted it to be true
   In my theater there is a stage
   And a footlight you can step into...
  
   I'll wait no more for you like a daughter,
   That part of our life together is over
   But I will wait for you, forever
   Like a river...
  
   In the river I know I will find the key
   And your voice will rise like the spray
   In the moment of knowing
   The tide will wash away my doubt
   'Cause you're already home
   Making it nice for when I come home
   Like the way I find my bed turned down
   Coming in from a late night out.
   Please keep reminding me
   Of what in my soul I know is true
  
  
   Come in my boat, there's a seat beside me
   And two or three stars we can gaze into...
  
   I'll wait no more for you like a daughter,
   That part of our life together is over
   But I will wait for you forever
   Like a river...
  
   I'll never leave, always just a dream away
   A star that's always watching
   Never turn away
   We'll never leave, always just a thought away
   A candle always burning
   Never turn away
   The moon will hide, the tree will bend
   I'm right beside you
   I'll never turn away
