Lyrics and translation
Original
Three in the meadow and two by the lake.
How many songbirds will it take to tell me so I still don't get it wrong? What's gone is gone is gone is gone.
Black silhouettes on the telephone pole, one outside your bedroom window.
You don't know what you thought you knew.
There's no springtime in the blues.
Ooh.
I see you going back there again to the moment where it all went wrong.
Rubbernecking on the highway wreck, then you see your own body lying on the ground.
I know you're looping and you're looping and you're looping.
It feels like you're never gonna break on through.
I'll never cast that stone on you, 'cause oh my God, I do it too.
Seven in the woods, four by the river. How many magpies fell forever?
Tell me so we don't get it wrong. What's gone is gone is gone is gone.
Nine black lotus floating on the pond. Eight violets on a midnight lawn.
We don't know what we thought we knew.
There's no springtime in the blues.
Ooh.
I see you going back there again to the moment where it all went wrong.
Rubbernecking on the highway wreck, then you see your own body lying on the ground.
I know you're looping and you're looping and you're looping.
It feels like you're never gonna break on through.
I'll never cast that stone on you, 'cause oh my God, I do it too.
I see you going back there again to the moment where it all went wrong.
Rubbernecking on the highway wreck, then you see your own body lying on the ground.
I know you're looping and you're looping and you're looping.
It feels like you're never gonna break on through. I'll never cast that stone on you, 'cause oh my
God, I do it too.
