Текст песни: A Woman, a Woman, a Century of Sleep + перевод

I know, I know that I could live

In whatever house you choose to build

And I will model myself on it

And wait for you alone

While you are out making a life for us

I will stay and watch the days go past

And I’ll see how the plants advance

And they turn on what they know

Now there is rosemary where previously

No rosemary was shown

They have aerials, they feed from me

And they grow and grow and grow

Now I am shifting into greenery

Now the pipes are running bone

And you might think I was a house

But I’m a woman, a woman

'Come back, come back' before, you said

'Come back so you can see

There are roses in the flowerbeds

Where there never used to be'

And all my days are

Fading into these

Walls you made of us

But I don’t want to be

The queen in a century of sleep

I know, I know that I believe

In whatever brings you joy from me

But I swept until I couldn’t sweep

And this house is still alive

Now I have to find a dress, have to buy a dress

Have to sew the dress 'til the pieces mesh

And I don’t think I’m ready yet

And I haven’t got the time

Now there is rosemary where previously

There was no rosemary

They have aerials, they feed from me

And they tease and tease and tease

Now I am shifting into scenery

Now the pipes are running bleach

And you might think I was a house

But I’m a woman, a woman

But you say, don’t be afraid

And you try to explain

How the best that we can hope and hope to gain

Is to love and then be loved

Is to have and then to hold

'Til we age and then grow old

And all my days are

Fading into these

Walls you made of us

But I don’t want to be

And all my days are

Fading into these

Walls you made of us

But I don’t want to be

The queen in a century of sleep

But I know that I believe

In whatever makes you pleased

In whatever brings you joy, from me
