lyrics

7. Когда любовь…
Когда любовь приходит,
Куда она приходит?
Зачем она приходит?
И к кому?
А ты все ждешь, зовешь ее:
“Приди ко мне, волшебная,
Приди и измени меня
Скорей.”

И снова закружилась голова в любви,
И заискрились током провода,
И загорелись белые снега синим огнем.
И вот уже несет нас в Никуда, иль Навсегда
А может Никогда, а музыка играет ла ла ла ла ла ла ла ла ла ла ла…

И вот любовь пришла к тебе,
На свете лучше нет ее.
Казалось бы чего еще
Желать?
Но вот уже душа твоя
Сомнениями наполнилась.
А стоит ли собою
Рисковать?

Когда любовь уходит…
Куда она уходит?
Совсем ли она уходит?
И к кому?
Не скажет до свидания,
Не обнимет на прощание.
И остается пустота,
А может облегчение?…

Но все-равно я уж не та и никогда не буду той,
И до краев полны слез обо мне твои прекрасные глаза.
Пусть рек наших слез текут, они текли еще тогда, когда нас не было.
И продолжается ла ла ла ла ла ла ла ла ла ла ла…

When Love…

When love comes
Where does it come?
Why does it come?
Who to?
You keep on calling her,
“Please come, enchanting love,
Please come and
Change me.”

And again your head is spinning in love.
The wires are sparking.
The white snow is burning.
We are pulled into Nowhere, into Nothingness, into Forever,
And the music keeps on playing la la la la la la la la …

So love came to you.
There’s nothing better in the world.
What more could you
Desire?
But already your heart is
Filled with doubt.
Is it worth risking your precious
Self?

When love leaves…
Does it leave forever?
Where does it go?
Who to?
It won’t say good bye,
Won’t kiss you farewell –
All that’s left is emptiness
Or relief…

But I am not the same any more and never will be.
Your beautiful eyes are filled with tears for me.
Let rivers of our tears flow, they ran even when we didn’t exist,
And the music keeps on playing la la la la la la la la …
