Sting - All This Time слова песни

I looked out acrossThe river today,I saw a city in the fog and an old church towerWhere the seagulls play.I saw the sad shire horses walking homeIn the sodium lightI saw two priests on the ferryOctober geese on a cold winter`s nightAnd all this time, the river flowedEndlessly to the sea.Two priests came round our house tonightOne young, one old, to offer prayers for the dyingTo serve the final rite,One to learn, one to teach,Which way the cold wind blowsFussing and flapping in priestly blackLike a murder of crowsAnd all this time, the river flowedEndlessly to the seaIf I had my way I`d take a boat from the riverAnd I`d bury the old man,I`d bury him at seaBlessed are the poor, for they shall inherit the earthBetter to be poor than a fat man in the eye of a needleAnd as these words were spoken I swear I hearThe old man laughing,`What good is a used up world, and how could it beworth having`And all this time the river flowedEndlessly like a silent tearAnd all this time the river flowedFather, if Jesus exists,Then how come he never lived here.The teacher told us, the Romans built this placeThey built a wall and a temple, an edge of the empireGarrison town,They lived and they died, they prayed to their godsBut the stone gods did not make a soundAnd their empire crumbled, `til all that was leftWere the stones the workmen foundAnd all this time the river flowedIn the falling light of a northern sunIf I had my way I`d take a boat from the riverMen go crazy in congregationsBut they only get betterOne by oneOne by one...
