avi vinocur - the riverbed كلمات الأغنية

fortifications our grandfathers built
are falling to a windy winter’s day
it’s amazing something so incredible
can be gently eroded away
in came the troops from the other side
without a shot or a bomb or a blast
just the quietness of steps
and the whistle of the leaves
and the calmness breathing its last
they didn’t come with intentions at all
just to see what had been behind the wall
we brought the panic
and we brought the fear
that caused our dear city to fall

now i’m sinking deeper
in the river you diverted to me
now i’m sinking deeper than before, love
but the riverbed is where i wanna be
yeah, the riverbed is where i wanna be

the fire followed brought the bell tower down
with a ring and a crack and a crash
and the mayhem continued after their legion left
til our city was nothing but ash
cause we didn’t harbor an easy place to rest
it was impossible to captain the boat
but what did we expect we were looking for a wreck
and nothing could keep us afloat

now i’m sinking deeper
in the river you diverted to me
oh yeah, i’m sinking deeper than before, love
but the riverbed is where i wanna be
oh yeah, the riverbed is where i wanna be

with the p-ssing of time we never tried to rebuild
the buildings the way that they stood
and the ashes of our town slowly washed into the banks
so the river can do what it should
a muddy afternoon i came to the water’s edge
to see the overgrowth upon my land
one step at a time i felt the water rising up
until the rocks were too far in the sand

now i’m sinking deeper
in the river you diverted to me
now i’m sinking deeper than before, love
but the riverbed is where i wanna be
yeah, the riverbed is where i wanna be
