Paradise — текст песни (Bruce Springsteen)

Where the river runs black

I take the schoolbooks from your pack

Plastics, wire and your kiss

The breath of eternity on your lips



In the crowded marketplace

I drift from face to face

I hold my breath and close my eyes

I hold my breath and close my eyes

And I wait for paradise

And I wait for paradise



The virginia hills have gone to brown

Another day another sun going down

I visit you in another dream

I visit you in another dream



I reach and feel your hair

Your smell lingers in the air

I brush your cheek with my fingertips

I taste the void upon your lips

And I wait for paradise

And I wait for paradise



I search for you on the other side

Where the river runs clean and wide

Up to my heart the waters rise

Up to my heart the waters rise



I sink `neath the water cool and clear

Drifting down, I disappear

I see you on the other side

I search for the peace in your eyes

But theyre as empty as paradise

Theyre as empty as paradise

I break above the waves

I feel the sun upon my face
