lyrics

[English translation]

I stood at the shore of the sea for a long time
Go there now and then, still
Take cigarettes with me, sit and look beyond
I know that somewhere, somewhere behind horizon you are and look at me
We see each other, we feel
I remember that greyish day when we thought out,
When we found that old legend in that old, dirty, crumpled book
And so it all came up…
We went, we went to the sea, sat in the sands
Strewed sands to each other and were delighted as children,
taking a furtive glance over shoulder to the sea, to the sun, to the greyish sky
And then we thought out, that there is no sense to stay there
We joined hands and over warm sands, with shining sun, went to the sea
We went till the water and stopped there, looked in the eyes
And full with determination squeezed hands of a friend
And went into the sea
Waded deeper and deeper
Water was a bit cold but it didn’t bother
We looked beyond, there where, as told in legend, the sea meats the sky
There is the horizon; there is that border, where all can start from the beginning
We went deeper and deeper
We looked beyond
Still hand in hand waded deeper
When water was already to my shoulder, I stopped
But you, full with determination, still wanted to go further
I got scared…I am weak
I wanted to discourage you, but you didn’t listen
I didn’t want to let you go, but you broke away from my hand and went farther
I pleaded, I screamed, I felt powerless
But you went deeper and looked ahead
And you didn’t look back
I stayed there pleading and splashing water
O, God how awful it was!
I ran away from water, I didn’t look back too, because I knew you wouldn’t stop, you will go ahead
I ran out from water and fell down in sands
I didn’t want to look what will happen further
When I came back to sense, was dark
And I understood that maybe you are already there,
There behind horizon, crossed that border where all can start from the beginning
Crossed that dreamland, where all, all can start from zero, from very beginning
While I recollected and came back to my mind, morning arise
Beautiful and bright sun again rose from the sea
Maybe from that horizon, form that dreamland
And climbed up high in the sky
I didn’t see you; you were gone
I get scared, then braced myself together and went away
Everything was become numb
I went over sands, they fall into my shoes, but I went away
Not looking back
Well, get into train and went away
Sprinkle of rain started and as usual, when rains and sun shines, than rainbow comes up, it was so beautiful
After two weeks accidentally bought newspaper, there where your photo, dead body washed ashore
There you were together with all other garbage form the sea – cans, bottles, and pieces of wood
I believe that you crossed that border, you reached the horizon and now you are in the dreamland
And there everything has started from the beginning
Now and then I come to the sea, smoke and look beyond
I know that you look at there too
And yes, you are going well

You know, now I am cutting my veins with knife, cutting all hand, as people cuts bread or meat
I cannot put up with and live further
You are not here
So very sad
