Текст песни: Waiting On the Dove + перевод

I went looking for answers that couldn´t be found

Set an uneasy pace on that uneven ground

between the downtrodden and the blood of my blood

Why do I keep waiting on the dove?

Between the rubbish & the rubble, there’s no place to hide

Trust and trouble can’t walk side by side

Why is it the latter that fits like a glove?

Why do I keep waiting on the dove?

So many people looking out for their own

with tear gas and plate glass, with slings and with stones

When there’s no room to breathe, it’s hard not to shove

Why do I keep waiting on the dove?

Clinging to something too tight to drop it

These tears keep coming, nothing seems to stop it

Every drop just adds a little more to the flood

Why do I keep waiting on the dove?

Headlines read «landmines» and «houses ripped down»

I’ve put names to the faces in these crumbling towns

Seen sorrow so deep, but there’s laughter and love

Why do I keep waiting on the dove?

I’ve seen people caught on both sides of a wall

Must one side rise and other side fall?

Can there only be peace when one side is silenced in blood?

Why do I keep waiting on the dove?

Flying home with a leaf clutched in my hand

It may be a sign, but there’s no sign of dry land

The water keeps rising and there’s nothing but darkness above

Why do I keep waiting on the dove?
