Текст песни: While the Grass Grows + перевод

I saw a man in the mirror

knuckles down deep in the ground

holding his ear upon his garden

listen to the dry roots pound

and he was calling out

he was calling out to me

He was calling out

he was calling out to me

He said «While your blood flows, you bleed!

While your blood flows, you bleed!

While your blood flows,

while your blood flows,

you bleed.»

I saw a woman in the mirror

dressed like a springtime leaf

budding as a dogwood flower

white with the winter’s sleep

and she was calling out

she was calling out to me

she was calling out

she was calling out to me

She said, «While the wind blows, you breathe

While the wind blows, you breathe!

While the wind blows,

while the wind blows,

you breathe.»

I saw a Spirit in the mirror

dancing on the line of belief

I saw a Spirit in the mirror

dancing on the top of the trees

and it was calling out

it was calling out to me

It was calling out

it was calling out to me

It said, «While the grass grows, you’re free

While the grass grows, you’re free

While the whole dust bowl takes you back when you go

and eats your body like coal cause you reap what you sow,

you’re free
