Velora Vance - The River's Other Life
Текст песни
Текст песни: The gauge is blind beneath the rain
Old numbers blister on the wall
The spillway groans against its chain
And mist climbs slowly past the hall
No lamps are burning on the ridge
No footsteps cross the service floor
One turbine turns behind the bridge
And keeps the dark awake once more
Stay where the black water holds
Stay till the low gates sigh
I hear the buried current
Turning under us tonight
Stay where the cold stone keeps
What daylight left behind
One wheel is still remembering
The river’s other life
A thread of vapor lifts and bends
Above the channel’s iron teeth
The warning bell has lost its tongue
The concrete draws a measured breath
No lamps are burning on the ridge
No footsteps cross the service floor
One turbine turns behind the bridge
And keeps the dark awake once more
Stay where the black water holds
Stay till the low gates sigh
I hear the buried current
Turning under us tonight
Stay where the cold stone keeps
What daylight left behind
One wheel is still remembering
The river’s other life
If the gates give way, let them
If the river calls, let it
I am only listening
From the dry side of the wall
Stay where the black water holds
Stay till the low gates sigh
I hear the buried current
Turning under us tonight
Stay where the cold stone keeps
What daylight left behind
One wheel is still remembering
The river’s other life
One wheel turns
The water waits
Old numbers blister on the wall
The spillway groans against its chain
And mist climbs slowly past the hall
No lamps are burning on the ridge
No footsteps cross the service floor
One turbine turns behind the bridge
And keeps the dark awake once more
Stay where the black water holds
Stay till the low gates sigh
I hear the buried current
Turning under us tonight
Stay where the cold stone keeps
What daylight left behind
One wheel is still remembering
The river’s other life
A thread of vapor lifts and bends
Above the channel’s iron teeth
The warning bell has lost its tongue
The concrete draws a measured breath
No lamps are burning on the ridge
No footsteps cross the service floor
One turbine turns behind the bridge
And keeps the dark awake once more
Stay where the black water holds
Stay till the low gates sigh
I hear the buried current
Turning under us tonight
Stay where the cold stone keeps
What daylight left behind
One wheel is still remembering
The river’s other life
If the gates give way, let them
If the river calls, let it
I am only listening
From the dry side of the wall
Stay where the black water holds
Stay till the low gates sigh
I hear the buried current
Turning under us tonight
Stay where the cold stone keeps
What daylight left behind
One wheel is still remembering
The river’s other life
One wheel turns
The water waits
