Текст песни: The Story (Never Told) + перевод

I’m the girl outside your window painted blue

who holds the shadows, waves goodbye, and shelters you,

counts the leaves falling from your windowpane

and rains forever ‘til it comes 'round back again.

You’re the boy that drops me down and picks me up,

breaks the mirrors in the dark and calls it luck,

lifts a hand to give the night a little something else

and measures mornings with the light inside himself.

Well it’s high time that we stumbled to the city,

don’t need a dime if we shine up all our pennies.

A highwire and an umbrella make a new day,

somersaulting to the faces on the subway…

I’m the girl inside the book upon your shelf

with all the mirrors, poetry inside herself,

a house of candles in the shadows burning bright

asking you to shed your skin and come inside.

You’re the boy that hears the wind across the town,

weaves all of his words to turn the world around,

stretches out his days like a canvas blue —

holds it to the sky to see the light shine through.

Well it’s high time that we painted up the city,

don’t need a dime if we shine up all our pennies.

A highwire and an umbrella make a new day,

somersaulting to the faces on the subway.

We write the songs we know we can believe in,

we breathe them, hold and free them,

‘cause baby, that’s the only way that we know

to send the sun shining through the stereo…

Because you tattooed your kisses in my mind,

the only true-blue valentine… and you know

it cannot be denied that you’ve haunted my room

with the hazel in your eyes…

We’re the story that the papers never told

about the things we couldn’t buy and never sold,

we’re the honey dancing in the amber light

of frozen dreams and Sunday schemes and second sight.

Well it’s high time that we painted up the city,

don’t need a dime if we shine up all our pennies.

A highwire and an umbrella make a new day

somersaulting to the faces on the subway.

We write the songs we know we can believe in,

we breathe them, hold and free them,

‘cause baby, that’s the only way that we know

to send the sun shining through the stereo.
