Текст песни: Waiting by the Sea + перевод

On a bright Spring day near the approach of May

My spirit lept with the season and drew me away

From the comforts and pleasures and agonies

That were familiar to me

A brief repose or a final close

To the years spent in emptiness, who knows?

It was not the time for clarity

It was a season of resurrection

Restless I wandered like a once-caged bird

Who found the sky and finally heard

His song without the echoes of a cage

But found it quite absurd

So seeking the solace of a greater sea

I walked the coast to know my condition

It was not the time for clarity

It was a season of resurrection

Waiting there by the sea

For history to pass me by

Waiting there by the sea

For memory just to leave me be

Waiting there by the sea

Waiting ever patiently

Waiting there by the sea

For you

What a thing, what a thing, spring in full fling

Despite the agony of the hour I was compelled to sing

A hymn to human victory

But I could not cease to cling

To the idle aims and futile games

Of a dying city whose rising flames

Promised to light a brighter way

Than the fury of a summer’s day

But every lamp was a lie, the city cold and dry

A crowda of climbing towers rose to shut out the sky

And every wall raised to keep back the sea

Kept all from being free

So I fled the streets to meet the tide

And I walk the coast to know my condition

But it was not the time for clarity

It was a season of resurrection

Waiting there by the sea

For history to pass me by

Waiting there by the sea

For memory just to leave me be

Waiting there by the sea

Waiting there patiently

Waiting there by the sea

For you

Waiting there by the sea

For history to pass me by

Waiting there by the sea

For memory just to leave me be

Waiting there by the sea

Waiting there patiently

Waiting there by the sea

For you

Waiting there by the sea

(Waiting there)

For you

Waiting there by the sea

For you

(Waiting there)

Waiting there by the sea

For you
