Текст песни: As They Sleep + перевод

You should watch your children as they sleep

Eyes plunged down to the higher deep

There will be vows to make and vows to keep

In the still air of the room

When the evening’s protesting cries

Have fallen all to lullabies

Oh, I advise you stay awhile

Before you tiptoe away

When the flash of anger has left those cheeks

And you trace the lines where the tears left streaks

And kiss the lids over eyes that seek

All their answers from you

Memories are for them like they are for us

Some loom like mountains, others blow away like dust

Some lodge like splinters still others, like rust

Must be scraped off before you can shine

So sitting here by this bedside

Fumbling for words to entreat the Divine

And render thanks for this blessed life

That has become the reason for mine

You should watch your children as they sleep

Eyes plunged down to the higher deep

There will be vows to make and vows to keep

In the still air of the room

In the still air of the room
