Текст песни: At the River's Edge + перевод

By the river’s dark

I wandered on

I lived my life

In Babylon

And I did forget

My holy song

And I had no strength

In Babylon

By the river’s dark

Where I could not see

Who was waiting there

Who was hunting me

And he cut my lip

And he cut my heart

So I could not drink

From the river dark

And he covered me

And I saw within

My lawless heart

And my wedding ring

I did not know

And I could not see

Who was waiting there

Who was hunting me

By the river’s dark

I panicked on

I belonged at last

To Babylon

Then he struck my heart

With a deadly force

And he said, this heart

It is not yours

And he gave the wind

My wedding ring

And he circled us

With everything

By the river’s dark

In a wounded dawn

I live my life

In Babylon

Though I take my song

From a withered limb

Both song and tree

They sing for him

Be the truth unsaid

And the blessing gone

If I forget

My Babylon

I did not know

And I could not see

Who was waiting there

Who was hunting me

By the river’s dark

Where it all goes on

By the river’s dark

In Babylon
