Текст песни
[Куплет 1] Someone used to hum a tune with no words, Soft in the kitchen while the evening fell; It mixed with water, wind, and settling birds, A sound the whole house seemed to know so well. [Припев] A tune with no words is the thing that stays, When the roof has fallen, the gate is gone; It outlives the walls, it outlives the days, The one low sound the years keep passing on. [Куплет 2] I went back. someone else lives there today, The rooms all changed, my name gone from the hall; Then from the grass, the evening, far away, Came that low tune — it knew me after all. [Припев] A tune with no words is the thing that stays, When the roof has fallen, the gate is gone; It outlives the walls, it outlives the days, The one low sound the years keep passing on.
