Текст песни: The Years Go By + перевод

That night

Back home

In the dark

So how will you do it?

While Shaun lies sleeping next to me

How will it possibly work?

I keep planning and conjuring and dreaming this idea

Until finally

I step fully inside it

How can you squeeze your whole lives into a hundred days?

We’ll have Halloween in the morning

Christmas in the afternoon

Birthdays at sundown

It sounds like a game

It is like a game

How will you speed up time?

What about the seasons?

We’ll make snow in the freezer for winter

We’ll grow geraniums in the bathroom for spring

We’ll watch the traffic outside our window

And call it the Thanksgiving Day Parade

The years the years the years go by

The years the years the years go by

Time slooooooooows down

(add harmony)

The years the years the years go by

The years the years the years go by

The seconds stretch into hours

The years the years the years go by

We touch each moment as it floats by

The years the years go by (The years the years the years go by)

The years the years go by (The years the years the years go by)

The red door opens

We see our whole lives stretched out in front of us

An open road, all the way to the ocean

The years the years

And he says

Let’s begin

Day one

The years keep on turning away from our faces, the / Day two

Light passes over us, oh how the days, how the / Day three

Days keep on turning, turning away from our faces, the / Day four

Light passes, oh how the days, how the

Days keep turning

The snow is falling / Day five

The petals are falling / Day six

The seasons are spinning so quickly

That we can walk right through them / Day ten

It’s working

The years the years the years go by / Day nineteen

The years the years the years go by / Day thirty

The years the years the years go by / Day thirty-eight

The years the years go by (The years the years the years go by)

The years the years go by (The years the years the years go by)

(continuous; ABIGAIL / SHAUN speak over him)

The years the years

The years keep on turning away from our faces

And as we walk the road grows longer

The light passes over us

Oh how the days

And as we walk the days become one long day

How the days keep on turning

Turning away from our faces

The light passes

And as we walk the seconds become one long second

(simultaneous when couplets)

Oh how the days, how the

I love you more

Days keep on turning

The years the years go by

Away from our faces, the

I love you more

Light passes over us

The years the years go by

Oh how the days, how

I love you more

The days keep on turning

Turning

The years the years go by

Away from our faces, the

I love you more

Light passes

The years the years go by

Oh how the days

I love you more

I love you more

I love you more

I love you more
