Versurile Dar Williams - This Was Pompeii
Versuri This Was Pompeii
I am thinking about the woman in a century of
peace,
On a bright mosaic she is washing on her knees,
And she looks up at the black sky beyond the
mountain tall,
She says, Oh good, the rain is finally going to
fall today.
This was Pompeii
And everyone has memories of the night that
melted stone,
The neighbor's nightgown, the screaming on the
phone,
And the tired man at the station says, We can't
tell who's alive,
All we ever know is that the tourists survive.
Tra la, tra la, they say, they say,
Let's Go Pompeii.
And I think about Pompeii when I feel an end is
near,
Just before the rain and eveyr time you
disappear,
And I think about a teacup, suspended and half
served,
And all the scholars know is that it's perfectly
preserved.
Oh, oh, that's all, they say,
This was Pompeii.
And as for my on kingdom, not a table leg was
charred,
I simply lost my kingdom, 'cause I held it much
too hard,
Once I had a sadness, the sadness turned to
trust,
The trust turned into ashes and to lawyers and
dust,
A century, a day,
This was Pompeii.
