Lyrics & translation
Verse
The morning fog hangs on the glass.
Утренний туман виснет на стекле.
A dusty case found in the grass.
В траве найден пыльный футляр.
Old wood resting by the lane.
Старое дерево покоится у дорожки.
Waiting for the music to return.
Ожидая, когда музыка вернётся.
Chorus
Play for the soul in the night.
Играй для души в ночи.
Keep the melody in your sight.
Не выпускай мелодию из виду.
A song for the stage so grand.
Песня для такой величественной сцены.
Held within a tired hand.
В уставшей руке зажата она.
Verse
A name is written on the side.
Имя написано на боку.
I find the owner waiting inside.
Я нахожу хозяина, ожидающего внутри.
Through the gate and to the hall.
Сквозь ворота и прямо в зал.
Hearing the great master's call.
Слыша зов великого мастера.
Chorus
Play for the soul in the night.
Играй для души в ночи.
Keep the melody in your sight.
Не выпускай мелодию из виду.
A song for the stage so grand.
Песня для такой величественной сцены.
Held within a tired hand.
В уставшей руке зажата она.
Bridge
The lights go dim before the show.
Свет гаснет перед началом шоу.
Strings are ready for the bow.
Струны готовы к смычку.
A nod of thanks, a silent grace.
Благодарный кивок, тихая милость.
Time and tune find their place.
Время и мотив находят своё место.
Chorus
Play for the soul in the night.
Играй для души в ночи.
Keep the melody in your sight.
Не выпускай мелодию из виду.
A song for the stage so grand.
Песня для такой величественной сцены.
Held within a tired hand.
В уставшей руке зажата она.
