Marianne Faithfull - Counting слова песни
Now is the glimmering spinning beginningOf something Ive prayed for and counted the minutesTo be in the shadows of sheltering meadowsOf night, here with you in my arms.This is the moment that pauses to hold usAs you and I move in a background of wonder,Surrounded by countless enclosuresOf nocturnal unspoken music of joy.Counting times you have stood at the foot of my ivory towerAnd waited, and called out my name by the hour,And counted on the wings of my heartstringsTo carry the sound, I have counted on pleading,You see how I need you, come down.And now between twilight and midnight I come to you,Down in my gown of soft moonbeams and starlight,Bright is the evening, the breezes have fenced usAnd nestled against us Youre here And warm.And mine till the timeWhen the dawn will awake you,The morning will shake you,The highway will take you.But now all the rays of the moon making bouquetsWill swim through the luster of lingering street lightsWe count on the night to hold everything even,And count on forgetting that you will be leaving,And destinys folded and then in the dawn youll be gone.But now as the gardens of softening night timeAre blossoming slowly around where we are,You and I come togetherAnd walk through the dreams of the stars.So here while the song of the deepening eveningIs singing to me from the light in your eyes,We can count on each other to move to the beach of tomorrowAnd know where weve been.
