Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
No sound of a dog bark
Only distant hum of cars and wind
And dry leaves falling
Where the light falls slant
She holds the river in her hands
November hits the ground
A blanket of yellow and brown
The rushing of the water drowns out
Birdsong and highway sound
She's wringing out sun-drenched hair
Find her by the river alone
She turns to water
He turns to stone
Stars above her
How they shone
Watching over
The current pulls at her bare feet and her legs
Up come a cold breeze
Arched trees bend in closer watching
She let the wind run his fingers through her hair
Let the sun touch her skin
Young brown golden
He found her by the river alone
She turned to water
He turned to stone
Stars above her
How they shone
Watching over
Driving rain at night holds its breath under bridges
The road hisses
As he slows to leave the highway
Streetlights shine on power lines
Rain hangs like diamonds
A necklace for a heavy sky on a windless night
He found her by the river alone
She turned to water
He turned to stone
Stars above her
How they shone
Watching over
Blue smoke in the backyard
Snaking high above the barn
Cold blanket of stars pulls in closer
The colder they are
