Brian Eno - By This River

On the river of the sky. Full screen recommended.

Here we are
Stuck by this river,
You and I
Underneath a sky that's ever falling down, down, down
Ever falling down.

Through the day
As if on an ocean
Waiting here,
Always failing to remember why we came, came, came:
I wonder why we came.

You talk to me
as if from a distance
And I reply
With impressions chosen from another time, time, time,
From another time.

I recently lost a dear friend to leukemia. This song makes me think of her, and hope she is still with me now, somehow.

Here we are Stuck by this river, You and I Underneath a sky that's ever falling down, down, down Ever falling down. Through the day As if on an ocean Waiting here, Always failing to remember why we came, came, came: I wonder why we came. You talk to me as if from a distance And I reply With impressions chosen from another time, time, time, From another time.

como sera esta cancion con una linea de bajo bien grave de fondo, de esa que hace vibrar los parlantes, me gustaria escucharla, pero este tema, tal como esta, es unico, bello, simple y majestuoso
