About Him (О Нем)

 

Takes so long to collect all of our days and our dates

Onto one thin thread.

I am trying to forget him, but a needle stabs me

With every attempt.

Day by day I try keep my dreams under control,

Now my heart’s filled to the brim

Need more nerves, less faith, it seems

That my mind can only think about him

Just think about him.

 

REFRAIN (2x):

I for him will fall into a crevice

I for him will climb up to the sky

I’m for him; I’m sorry, pride

He’s my god; I follow just him, only him

 

Trying hard to fake a smile when I am with my friends,

It is not easy.

I would put down a period but there are only commas;

This is serious.

Loneliness seems to shatter me to shreds,

My outlook on life is grim

Let it all burn off, it seems

That my mind can only think about him

Just think about him.

 

REFRAIN (2x)

 

I for him will fall into a crevice!

I for him will climb up to the sky!

 

REFRAIN (2x)
