Текст песни: The River Queen + перевод

The thing is that a river never has to choose a path

It just flows down, past the valleys and the parks

And it takes on a lot of shit along the road

But the river knows exactly where it’s going

To the ocean at the bottom of the hill

Where the green grass meets the deep blue dark

Deepness of the waters cold as ice

I had come to this place to bury some things

Bury my iPod, bury my rings

And I filled the whole with all my cycling clothes

Then 'round the bend of the river she came

Cold as ice, the river queen

With hair of gold and skin of blue

She floated past without so much as a «how do you do?»

When I stood and stared

She floated out to sea and was sunset

Eventually the water turned to red

The thing is that a river bends and twists like a lie

And a river is a very good place to hide

So they placed her in the water in the darkness of the night

And he kissed her on the brow, and let her to the tide

Oh you foolish, foolish man

Wiping the blood from the back of your hand

Don’t you know the river is a lady

The thing is that a river never has to choose a path

It just flows down, past the valleys and the parks

And it takes on a lot of shit along the road

But the river knows exactly where it’s going

To the ocean at the bottom of the hill

Where the green grass meets the deep blue dark

Deepness of the waters cold as ice
