Green Is the Colour

WATERS

Lyrics Translation

Heavy hung the canopy of blue
Shade my eyes and I can see you
White is the light that shines through the dress that you wore

She lay in the shadow of the wave
Hazy were the visions of her playing
Sunlight on her eyes but moonshine made her cry every time

Green is the color of her kind
Quickness of the eye deceives the mind
Envy is the bond between the hopeful and the damned

[Songtekst van "Green Is the Colour" (Vertaling)]

[Verse 1]
De blauwe luifel hing zwaar
Schaduwt mijn ogen en ik kan jou zien
Wit is het licht dat schijnt door het kleed dat jij droeg

[Verse 2]
Ze lag in de schaduw van de golf
Vaag was de visie van zij dat speelt
Zonlicht op haar ogen maar maneschijn maakte haar elke keer blind

[Verse 3]
Groen is de kleur van haar soort
De vlugheid van het oog bedriegt de geest
Afgunst is de band tussen de hoopvollen en de verdoemden
