Текст песни: Mrs Caesar + перевод

I catch you in the wine cup

Like the moon upon the water

Your faint reflection

My frail perception

Until today

And the more I gaze at her

I see the Devil’s daughter

While in the corner

Of the trattoria

He stands

He watches

As our hands entwine

And her lips meet mine

While the taste of blood

Washes through my mind.

What have I done, what have I done

Mrs Caesar?

I’ve torn our empire limb from limb

Just to please her

And this honeyed taste of love

Embittered with his blood.

The Rubicon flows red tonight

Like the water when I bathe

And as she feels me

The scarlet steals me

From the bed

And as I pace the kitchen floor

He whispers at the door

And crowds the silence

With raging violence

Like a hum

A heartbeat

Like a swarm of bees

Or the crash of seas

While the weight of blood

Brings me to my knees.

What have I done, what have I done

Mrs Caesar?

I’ve paid the life that ran through him

To release her

And this honeyed scent of love

Embittered with his blood

While feather crests of red

Lie in copper-coloured mud.

And I become a knight

Who knows no royalty

And for the sake of love

I know no loyalty.
