Select language to translate this lyric
There's a time, early evening
The city shows its mercy
Lines are cast through the river glass
As the sun sinks into Jersey
On my left, the lady glints
The copper torch of liberty
On my right, the faded prints
Of where you stood so near to me
Through window panes as thin as prayer
You can hear the peals of thunder
I've spent hours sitting there
Confusing love with hunger
Today my longing knows no limits
I'm held by what I cannot hold
Stay with me for just these few more minutes
Keep me from the cold
Soon the car will come and take you
And I will have to let go
For just one more chance to make you laugh
I'd give the world, you know
I haven't always shown my best
I've wounded those I most adore
But all is well, safely rest
I will meet you on the other shore
