Sting

And if I told you that I loved you

You'd maybe think there's something wrong

I'm not a man of too many faces

The mask I wear is one

Those who speak know nothing

And find out to their cost

Like those who curse their luck in too many places

And those who fear are lost

On and on the rain will fall

Like tears from the star, like tears from the star.

On and on the rain will say

How fragile we are, how fragile we are.

If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one,

Drying in the colour of the evening sun.

Tomorrowґs rain will wash the stains away,

But something in our minds will always stay.

Perhaps this final act was meant to clinch a lifetimers argument

That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could.

For all those born beneath an angry star,

Lest we forget how fragile we are.

Если прольется кровь, когда плоть и сталь станут одним целым,

Она высохнет, освещенная вечерним солнцем.

А завтрашний дождь смоет ее следы.

Но она навсегда оставит отпечаток в нашей памяти.

Возможно, этот последний акт был нужен, чтобы разрешить вечный спор

О том, что насилие ничего и никогда не принесет,

Чтобы те, кто был рожден под несчастливой звездой,

Не забывали, какие мы хрупкие.

It would make a prison of my life,

If you become another's wife.

A million roads, a million fears

A million suns, ten million years of uncertainty

I could speak a million lies, a million songs,

A million rights, a million wrongs in this balance of time

But if there was a single truth, a single light

A single thought, a singular touch of grace

Then following this single point, this single flame,

This single haunted memory of your face
