Текст песни: ...If Jeff Buckley Had Lived + перевод

If Jeff Buckley had lived

And his voice still was heard

On the weak second album

And difficult third

Then the critics, who broke him

He couldn’t forgive —

Would grow old and forget him

If Jeff Buckley had lived

And there’s a fog growing at the edge of the lake

And there’s a star falling at the edge of the lake

And there’s a man praying at the edge of the lake

And there’s a flicker of religion in the chances you take

If Jeff Buckley had lived

There’d have been weeks of sickness

Acid vomit in his throat

And awful press pictures

He’d have turned down half the needy

Who asked him to give

And plenty would have cursed him

If Jeff Buckley had lived

And there’s a fog growing at the edge of the lake

And there’s a star falling at the edge of the lake

And there’s a man praying at the edge of the lake

And there’s a flicker of religion in the chances you take

If Jeff Buckley had lived

He’d have been short on the throne

And counted his life out

In an old rockstar’s home

Where they play 'Hallelujah'

Every retrospective

And most wouldn’t know him

If Jeff Buckley had lived

And there’s a fog growing at the edge of the lake

And there’s a star falling at the edge of the lake

And there’s a man praying at the edge of the lake

And there’s a flicker of religion in the chances you take

But there is no salvation at the hands of the fates

And there is no design to whom death comes to take

And the faces in the vapour, they are lies and mistakes

And every day there is a fog there, at the edge of the lake

And every day there is a fog there, at the edge of the lake
