Текст песни: Atlantic + перевод

There’s a channel. There’s a tunnel

You can sail by train, from the English coast

There’s an ocean with no tunnel

You can sail by mail, but go parcel post

There’s nothing but the waves, the fish & the kelp

In between her & him

They entertain the thought about meeting halfway

But neither knows how to swim

He has a pump, she has a pail

They’ll empty this quarry soon

Stand on a rock and see each other wave

And for now that will have to do

Till the Atlantic’s dry

There’s a lighthouse, there’s an outhouse

Both rely on a torch, just different bulbs

He sends flowers- it takes hours

Just to lie on her porch, they’re quite different bulbs

There’s nothing but the waves, the fish & the kelp

In between her & him

They entertain the thought about meeting halfway

But neither knows how to swim

He has a pump, she has a pail

They’ll empty this quarry soon

Stand on a rock and see each other wave

And for now that will have to do

Till the Atlantic’s dry

Bridge the distance, drain the ocean

Pave a highway on the sandy floor

Part the waters with devotion- it’s just a thought

A reunion near Bermuda

They’re too tired to hug, they just stand and gleam

Dehydrated yet elated

& they suddenly wake, they’ve both shared a dream

There’s nothing but the waves, the fish & the kelp

In between her & him

They entertain the thought about meeting halfway

But neither knows how to swim

He has a pump, she has a pail

They’ll empty this quarry soon

Stand on a rock and see each other wave

And for now that will have to do

Till the Atlantic’s dry

Till the airfares drop to Greyhound rates

For now that will have to do

Till Mother Earth moves and shifts some plates

For now that will have to do

Till the Crown reclaims the United States

For now that will have to do

Till Saint Peter opens up Heaven’s gates

For now that will have to do

Till the Atlantic’s dry
