Translation of the song lyrics Znam - Crvena jabuka, Arsen Dedic

Znam (original)

Zatvorim li oči neću vidjet' kako tražiš
Nemoć na mom licu, od ljubavi strah
Začepim li uši neću čuti šta ćeš reći
Jer teške riječi rastu k’o carobni grah
Znam, ja nisam taj
Što je tvoje srce krao
Znam, ti htjela bi
Da je drugi kraj tebe
Znam, opet ces reć'
Kako ništa nisam dao
Znam, ti dala si
Ja uzeo sam sve
Pustio sam davno
Da se stvari dese same
Ne pomažu vatrogasci ni policija
Umoran sam od tišine, a i od galame
Živjeti u dvoje, nemoguća misija
Niz mokru ulicu
Otploviću k’o Noina arka
Ti čuvaj svoju laž da je ova ljubav
Bila samo varka

Znam (translation)

If I close my eyes, I won't see what you're looking for
Powerlessness on my face, fear of love
If I cover my ears, I won't hear what you say
Because hard words grow like magic beans
I know, I'm not the one
What your heart stole
I know, you would
That the other end is you
I know, you'll say again
How I didn't give anything
I know, you gave
I took everything
I let go a long time ago
That things happen on their own
Firefighters and police are not helping
I'm tired of the silence, and also of the noise
Living in two, mission impossible
Down the wet street
I will sail away like Noah's ark
You keep your lie that this is love
It was just a hoax
