My Lovesong

 

I’m listening for a kind of song,

A song about man and woman.

L’été indien” – this is its name.

In my condition, it is moving.

 

Maybe, for singer text is abstract,

But now, for me, it is quite true.

While singing it I needn’t be an actor,

Alone with my feeling – feeling blue.

 

Including sense into my singing…

Of course, I’ve got a reason to do this.

The reason is that I can’t keep from thinking

About you, with whom I’ve once been singing with.

 

That time my love inspired me to sing,

And there also was a sense in that creation,

A little later, suddenly, love went away; to bring

It back it seems impossible. Forever all the passion

 

Will be a kind of dream of something passed for me…

 

I don’t feel love for you, I don’t feel anymore,

And that’s my state since last New Year.

But still I thank you for the love you gave to me.

By now I know that I loved just the you-ideal.

 

“Remaining friends – it is the best for us” –

That time I thought about it like this, my dear.

And now, surely, I understand: I can, I must

Keep silent when you go away from here.

 

But… it is painful when I let you go…

My dear, I want you to know:

 

My old love is somewhere inside me,

I’ll always love you, my ideal, my first love,

I will remember you as my first love.

By now, honey, that’s the right thing.
