Текст песни: Beacon + перевод

Skip the subway, hail a taxi

Take the BQE right down, you know the drill

Friday night and things are happening

Hat, gloves, sweater get right at me

But everywhere we turn it’s like a living Urban Outfitters ad

Just an observation — I don’t know or really care if it’s good or bad

It’s as if you were just a beacon in a river that I couldn’t have

Now you’ve got cracks and fault lines in your pavement but I could be fine with

that

I was in love with you

I was in love with you

When we were standing on the roof

Overlooking our neighborhood

I could tell you were nervous

From the way that you stood

We were lookin at the houses and the lights and the cars

I was only watching you

I know you knew!

But you kept climbing higher

Here above the wires I will hang my heart

From the laces of your shoes

I will play my part

And promise not to move — I will hang very still

Aren’t they moments like these that you see in your head

Stop writing them down take me to bed

Its been a long time I’ve waited to be alone with you

It’s as if you were just a beacon in a river that I couldn’t have

Now you’ve got cracks and fault lines in the pavement but I could be fine with

that

I was in love with you

I was in love with you

I see your spire through the trees

The twisted metal in the leaves

There’s thunder in this very need

There’s something waking up in me

I know that you’ll appreciate

Your power to resuscitate

A soul that couldn’t run the race

And now I’m staring in the face or a facade

Is it a place or a mirage

I don’t care

Just put me there and take my clothes but don’t tell god

Off the map and into the stadium

Gladiators swingin like they famous

You were just a beacon in a river that I couldn’t have

Now you’ve got cracks and fault lines in the pavement

But I could be fine with that
