Текст песни: Dreaming + перевод

Oh Lord, we were dreaming

And the sign at the side of the road pointed to Mars

I didn’t understand the meaning of the words she spoke

Like a James Bond movie but it looked too real

Way above the mountains on a one-way ride

Looking for a reason well we won’t go there, we won’t go there

We’re under the umbrella of a different sky

Where a new storm gathers with the stakes too high

But we’re standing on the shoulders of a great empire

And we ain’t so perfect but we won’t go there, we won’t go there,

we won’t go there

I don’t wanna be where the buildings break

And the young bones shatter and the fireman’s tears

I don’t wanna watch but I can’t look away, 'cos it could have been you and it

could have been me

How can you fly when you’ve got no wings and there’s no escape from the burning

flames?

Oh Lord, it’s falling down

I understand the meaning as Vesuvius blows

And the Romans staring at the white hot snow

Give or take a day before it all came down

Try to get inside their heads but it won’t compute, won’t compute

As you ramble down the streets of an old Pompeii

We couldn’t help feeling that it shouldn’t be here

Fifteen hundred years they were digging it up

With the seeds all growing and the golden sun, the golden sun, the golden sun

I don’t wanna be where the buildings break

And the young bones shatter and the firemen die

I don’t wanna watch but I can’t look away, 'cos it could have been you and it

could have been me

How can you fly when you’ve got no wings and there’s no escape from the burning

flames?

Oh Lord, it’s falling down

Oh Lord, we were dreaming

And the sign at the side of the road is burning down, down

In the summer light

I saw your face

And the summer’s born to live

Chasing all the faces in the Northern lights

In the shadow of a mountain and the giant ice

Well you could feel small but she’s standing tall

As you throw imagination at the farthest star, the farthest star

How could we be broken when we’re all made up

Of the finest dust of the Universe?

Glowing brightly in the presence of a newborn smile

It’s a grand illumination you could never describe, never describe,

never describe

I don’t wanna be where the buildings break

And the young bones shatter and the firemen die

I don’t wanna watch but I can’t look away, 'cos it could have been you and it

could have been me

How can you fly when you’ve got no wings and there’s no escape from the burning

flames?

Oh Lord, it’s falling down

Oh Lord, we were dreaming

And there isn’t a sign of the road anymore

Did we drink too much wine, were we chipping away at the good will once left to

us many a day?

Carelessly drifting like leaves on the water, no rudder to steer us back home

In the summer light I saw your smile

And the summer’s born to live

Well you can’t taste the wine

And you can’t take my hand

'Cos the summer’s born to give
