Текст песни: Farther up the Road + перевод

Honey, cover me with roses

Cover me in the leaves of fall

On those beads of your rosary

Hey, remember me when you call

I’ll be waiting by the telephone

Though you’re just down the hall

When I’m beat down, cold, and stoned

Wrap me up in your prayer shawl

Now some will steal your garden

Some will sow their weeds

Yeah, some will rob you good and blind

Just to see you bleed

Honey, cover me with roses

This sack of bones and skin

Come and breathe upon this spirit

'Fore winter settles in

Checking out of this cheap motel

With the wind all in our souls

God shows His face farther up the road

Now all those choices that you took

Asked more than you can give

And all of those worst-case scenarios

Become your one life to live

And all the greed and powers that be

They have worked no ill effect

There are never disappointments

When there’s nothing left

Checking out of this cheap motel

With the wind all in our souls

God shows His face farther up the road

Now hunger, she’s a driver

But you never knew her name

You had assumed different destinations

But now they’re obviously the same

Yeah, you can take it all on the chin

Pretending you don’t feel a thing

And there is no bucket big enough

For the tears that make you sing

Checking out of this cheap motel

With the wind all in our souls

God shows His face farther up the road

Honey, cover me with roses

Yeah, and do not spare the thorns

You know some of us are waiting here

A lifetime to be born

And if there are no roses

And those dealers will not sell

Let your prayers become like kisses

And they’ll do just as well

Checking out of this cheap motel

The wind all in our souls

God shows His face farther up the road

God shows His face farther up the road

God shows His face farther up the road

Farther up the road
