Текст песни Russians and Americans - Al Stewart
Al
Stewart
So
here
we
stand
at
the
edge
of
1984
Bracing
ourselves
once
again
For
the
storm
approaching
as
those
Who
long
before
huddled
in
caves
from
the
rain
The
enemy's
face
is
so
hard
to
see
Sometimes
it
seems
that
I
see
him
in
you
Sometimes
in
me
Who
can
he
be?
No
use
consulting
the
prophets
and
leaders
they
all
disagree
Russians
and
Americans,
here's
a
song
for
you
Who
carry
the
weight
of
the
world
on
your
heads
Russians
and
Americans,
tell
me
if
it's
true
You
really
believe
all
the
things
that
you've
said
The
red-white-and-blue
running
into
the
red
From
the
wars
of
Europe,
the
pilgrim
fathers
Set
off
with
their
hopes
and
their
bond
Some
settled
down
by
the
coast,
others
crossed
The
mountains
and
into
the
flatlands
beyond
From
scramble
and
dust
of
Muscovite
streets
Merchants
develop
the
trade
routes,
And
open
the
door
to
the
East.
Pioneer
waves
Choked
by
the
cold
breath
of
winter,
Or
baked
by
the
heat
of
the
day
Russians
and
Americans
Passing
through
the
fire
of
revolution
and
coming
of
age
Russians
and
Americans
Driven
by
desire,
two
players
push
to
the
front
of
the
stage
The
whole
world
now
watches
each
move
that
you
make
Two
runners
caught
in
the
thrill
of
the
race,
The
finishing
line
is
as
far
as
the
stars
that
the
satellites
chase
Why
quicken
the
pace?
Why
does
it
seem
that
you
choose
to
lose
reason
before
losing
face?
Russians
and
Americans
Driven
by
the
past,
the
third
world
moves
in
the
shadows
you
cast
Russians
and
Americans
Could
turn
the
world
to
dust,
so
much
to
live
for,
so
much
undiscussed
So
much
in
common
and
so
little
trust
From
the
streets
of
Athens
and
Rome
the
voices
still
echo
to
crumbling
walls
Look
to
the
past
and
remember
no
empire
rises
that
sooner
or
later
won't
fall
Forever
the
changes
we
still
have
to
face
Some
people
say
that
a
country
is
more
and
idea
than
a
place
Though
nothing
is
safe
We
still
choose
the
mark
that
we
leave
on
the
open
canvas
of
space
Russians
and
Americans
Maybe
you
should
see
into
the
heart
of
the
world,
not
its
head
Russians
and
Americans
If
you
want
to
be
the
feet
of
the
world,
better
mind
where
you
tread,
The
footsteps
of
history
are
left
where
you
step
So
here
we
stand
at
the
edge
of
1984
