Текст песни Ophelia - Becca Stevens

Ophelia
Wandered out into the belly of the woods
To bleed out in the arms of love that once bidden her heart
That beat for him

The sleeping man

In the silence of the absence of her self-fulfilling dreams
Ophelia found a place to rest where the river finds the sea
Of all the beauty that she had ever seen
Ophelia felt it all at once
At one with everything
And so with him

The sleeping man

Her restless heart had done it again
A fool for a hollow dream
Then lovesick and out of sorts
She'd fallen on the sleeper's sword

So Ophelia wandered out into the belly of the sea
So she could finally see herself as she was meant to be
And cradled by the water, rocking her to sleep
Ophelia made a promise from thine own self be free
And fell into
The arms of the deep

In the night travelling home from war
His dreams as black as ink
Now upon the river's edge
Death parted
To wash his grisled face
And drink

And as he cupped his empty hands to bring 'em to his lips
A vision of a woman nearly stopped his breath
He knew this woman, he'd seen her in his dreams
She'd haunted him on the battlefield and gave him cause to live

Of all the beauty that he had ever seen
Now he felt it all at once
Now he felt it all at once
Ophelia

His restless heart had done it again
A fool for a phantom queen
He dropped his armour and his sword
And all he had ever been

The knight looked in the water to find his river queen
And there he saw a man like him where she had always been

Of all the beauty that he had ever seen
Now he felt it all at once
At one with everything
And so with her
Ophelia
