Текст Paul Kelly – Nothing But A Dream

High on a hill, deep in a forest
At the end of a lonely road
Inside a house of New Zealand timber
Lives a young queen all on her own

You will fall, you will fall
Nothing but a dream, nothing as it seems
You will fall, you will fall
Nothing as it seems, nothing but a dream

She sat me down at her dark piano
And said ‘Can you play me that old Spanish song?
I know a verse and all of the chorus
But there’s just one chord I keep getting wrong’
She threw down three coins and said ‘There’s a purpose
In all that we do, every fall of a leaf
Now drink from this cup, I made you a potion
And lay yourself down and get you some sleep’

You will fall, you will fall
Nothing but a dream, nothing as it seems
You will fall, you will fall
Nothing as it seems, nothing but a dream

I woke to the sound of somebody strumming
She held in her hands a parlour guitar
She said ‘If you like this song that I’m strumming
Take it with you, it’s only a prayer’

You will fall, you will fall
Nothing but a dream, nothing as it seems
