Counting Crows - River Shannon [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Oh Shannon
I might be dreaming
The stars fell down on the factory
The cathedrals repeating, the light receding
Bells on another day
Have you ever seen my face
Fast asleep and dreaming?

[Verse 2]
Oh Shannon
The lightning fell
There's an army down by the riverside
But I might be dreaming
I can see that you don't believe me
And I might be dreaming
If I dip into your water
Fall through my reflection
I will shadow myself anyway
Have you ever seen my face
Fast asleep and dreaming?

[Verse 3]
And it don't seem right
That I don't get no sleep at night
What's the river going to know about leaving?

[Verse 4]
Oh Shannon
The soldiers are coming
The guns are drumming the night away
Rain, rain go away
Come again some other day
When I got time for believing
Have you ever seen my face
Fast asleep and dreaming?

Yeah! What is there left to believe in?!

[Verse 5]
Oh Shannon
I might be dreaming
I might be wasting my life away
Listening to you
Down on under the streetlight
You shudder and beat
The edge of the waterway
And I know if I had time
I might dive in your water
Lie right down in the evening rain
I just want this pain, pain to go away
Come again some other day
When I got time for bleeding
Have you ever seen my face
Fast asleep and dreaming?

And it don't seem right that I don't get no sleep at night
What's the river going to know about leaving?

[Outro]
Oh Shannon
I might be dreaming
