Machete-Нежность

Translation stationnnnn. These lyrics are a roughly translated version of the song below. This is by no means a literal translation, etc, but it is inspired by. Enjoy?

Machete-Нежность
I saw you the first time and, it was funny,

you reminded me of everyone

I once loved,

and had once been with.

I was struck still.

I was struck silent.

…And could hardly believe it.

So, don’t take it the wrong way when I say,

we’re already together,

but I’m thinking about seeing you next.

I hear you breathing,

I smell your hair,

and I wonder:

will you stay?

We fell asleep

with hands held tightly.

I think we were afraid

of letting go.

Because when the world is manifold,

and our lives distracted,

anything that lets you fold it down
is sacred.

You’re all I need.

Do you understand?

*********

Dreaming we started

our way to success.

Our days were long,

and filled with laughter.

We lived without time

(no years, no minutes),

happy as kids

with stray coins in their bag.

We didn’t need gold

nor fame, nor lust--

just love,

to let us shine, shine like light bulbs.

When I talk about you,

it sends shivers down my spine.

And if you ask if I have a secret,
I'll say yes: 

I’m happy because I have you.

We’re not Bonnie, not Clyde

just two simple guys--

that live like little cracks

on one window.

You’re all I need.

Do you understand?

**********
Our first kiss;

Your name on my lips.

Simple words,

But I’m proud of them.

For, I’m so grateful to heaven,

I’m so grateful to fate,

because I’ve finally realized

who I am,

with you.

You are my love.

You are everything I need.

*********
Please, give me tenderness.
