Intro: Verse 1 Four horses pull a carriage through an empty street And though the day is cold & still they are not breathing They make no sound at all As easily as water finds its way to ground They bleed into the brick and are gone And I have seen what I have seen as I fall Like a whisper in the dome of St Paul The drowning man’s forgot what he’s called But he illuminates our town for us all Interlude Verse 2 Walk up the narrow staircase from the balcony And at the top go out and grip the golden railing The view from up here really takes your breath away You step out of of your skin and you’re gone And I have seen what I have seen as I fall Like a whisper in the dome of St Paul The drowning man’s forgot what he’s called But he illuminates our town for us all So follow me down to the riverside honey We can pack our bags and take all our money We can fly away we can fly away Take me down to the railway tracks We can cross the bridge where the sun sets baby We can fly away we can fly away Take me down take me down Fly away fly away Interlude The day is cold and still and there’s no reason To make a sound at all As easily as water finds its way to ground Interlude And I have seen what I have seen as I fall Like a whisper in the dome of St Paul The drowning man’s forgot what he’s called But he illuminates our town Outro And I have seen what I have seen as I fall Like a whisper in the dome of St Paul The drowning man’s forgot what he’s called he illuminates our town for us all

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque une promenade mystérieuse dans un paysage urbain silencieux, où des chevaux tirent une calèche à travers des rues désertes. Le narrateur, face à des souvenirs et à des visions, ressent un profond lien avec son environnement, décrivant un sentiment d'évanescence, presque comme une lévitation. Il fait référence à l’architecture majestueuse de la coupole de la cathédrale de Saint-Paul, ainsi qu'à un homme en détresse qui, malgré sa lutte, offre une lumière et une beauté à ceux qui l'entourent. On ressent une invitation à échapper à la morosité, à se diriger vers la rivière, à s’évader ensemble et à vivre des moments précieux, incarnant l’espoir et la quête de liberté.
