Slow Rivers — текст песни (Elton John)

The weather man he looks confused
Shakes his fist at the sky like you used to do
But you don`t remember things like that do you
The balance was uneven but I`m breaking through

Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I`d drown and you`d never know
You`re a slow river and you run so cold

The winter here don`t believe in God
The bitter wind just bites through me like a wild dog
I still see your eyes tonight like headlights through the fog
But one foot in your door oh that`s all I ever got

Chances are you`ll reappear
Swim my way in a flood of tears
No place to hide your conscience so
You`re a sinking ship with no place to go
