With you in the same high-rise building,
|
You are on the ninth, I am on the first.
|
I wrote you poems on the walls
|
In small print.
|
And in the evenings I waited
|
When you creak the door at the entrance.
|
I looked through the peephole as you were leaving,
|
You are on the elevator.
|
Chorus:
|
And I'm getting further and further to you,
|
You are getting closer and closer from me.
|
I would love you before
|
You would live on the floor below.
|
We are older and older every year,
|
And you now live in Paris.
|
You are farther and farther away from me,
|
But I'm getting closer and closer to you.
|
You flew away early in the morning
|
And I was standing near the entrance.
|
Say love before leaving
|
I was shy.
|
I already live not on the first
|
I bought an apartment on the ninth.
|
And on the wall I write with hope:
|
"Come back."
|
Chorus:
|
And I'm getting further and further to you,
|
You are getting closer and closer from me.
|
I would love you before
|
You would live on the floor below.
|
We are older and older every year,
|
And you now live in Paris.
|
You are farther and farther away from me,
|
But I'm getting closer and closer to you.
|
You know, I remember your eyes
|
The smell of your hair
|
Of course, I understand that you are very far away,
|
But I will wait for you - always!
|
Chorus:
|
And I'm getting further and further to you,
|
You are getting closer and closer from me.
|
I would love you before
|
You would live on the floor below.
|
We are older and older every year,
|
And you now live in Paris.
|
You are farther and farther away from me,
|
But I'm getting closer and closer to you. |
