Текст песни: Summer Lightning + перевод

I was driving west

Through the Bighorn Mountains

The hills were heavy with new-fallen snow

And the sun-bright hills

Were dappled like a pony

I was driving hard, I had miles to go

And a magpie flew

Across the mountain highway

It flashed and tumbled

Through the golden trees

And I thought of you

And my heart was lifted

And floated with that magpie, on the morning breeze

For where I go

You go with me

Though the miles keep us apart

Your kiss is on my lips and your face before me

And your gentle hand, always on my heart

We are brief as a summer lightning

We are swift as swallow’s flight

We are sparks that spiral upward in the darkness in the night

We are frost upon a window

We won’t pass this way again

In the end only love remains

Tonight the harvest moon

Hangs across the valley

I see the hills shine in its silvery light

It’s the same old moon

That shines upon you

It’ll light my way until I’m by your side

Well, who scattered these diamonds

Through the vault of heaven?

Who drew the curve of the magpie’s wing?

Who shaped your face?

What made you love me?

Where is the spark of every living thing?

Well, I guess I don’t know

Don’t care either

I know you love me

How could I not see?

And I am yours, now and forever

Œtil my lips fall silent and my eyes can’t see

We are brief as a summer lightning

We are swift as swallow’s flight

We are sparks that spiral upward in the darkness in the night

We are frost upon a window

We won’t pass this way again

In the end, dear, only love remains
