Текст песни: The Verdant Mile + перевод

I didn’t want to burn like this, so close to the bone

No muscle left to carry it, this black bag of stones

It’s a black bag

The August heat, the autumn rain, and winter’s face of blue

The seasons keep their spinning up but there’s no sign of you

There is no sign

And so I walk this verdant mile

Of memory with you

The Gentle Arms of Eden

And The Mountain get me through

Richard says the whippoorwill taught him how to go

I tell him death is just a dream but i don’t really know

It’s everything and nothing when the spirit cracks the sky

But flowers fold and go to seed and no one questions why

Nobody

And so I walk this verdant mile

Of memory with you

The Gentle Arms of Eden

And The Raven get me through

I miss you like I love the sound of blackbirds in the trees

I sit alone and wish that either one of you would visit me

But no matter how much seed i hang, what prayer I call out

I cannot bring that bird in from the field or make an angel come around

And so i walk this verdant mile

Of memory with you

The Gentle Arms of Eden

And The Mountain get me through
