pictures recalled

Pictures recalled and still now they burn
Riding the swell, contradictions returned
A soundtrack of sorts accompanies the scene
The depth of the feeling, the fracturing dreams
All of the scenes including the last
All of the words and pages we passed
Everything changed, no longer restrained
Emotions that capture, again and again and again
Oh this game, its bitter embrace
We play it regardless of time and of place
Oh how we live, to love not to hate
In spite of the silence, because of the faith
All of the scenes including the last
All of the words and pages we passed
Everything changed, no longer restrained
Emotions that capture again and again and again
*****
"Goodbye my love" came the breathless whisper as she half-turned on the threshold
Her body a silhouette back-lit by the yellow glow of the street-lamp
Painfully she had to
But never wanted to
In the depths of her heart
"You know I love you still. In spite of everything"
Then she turned and the apartment door closed
Shutting out and shutting in
The key turned in the lock
Two
Alone
And all was gone
All was gone
Pictures Recalled

odejdź - tak będzie lepiej
(brzęk szklanki)
odejdź – oddam ci płyty i książki
parę listów wylewnych spalę
nie nie boję się wcale
i nie wiem co to żal
(drżenie ramion)
odejdź - tak będzie lepiej
(brzęk szklanki)
nie wiem co to żal
ty też swoje listy spal
(nie wiem co to żal
chociaż serce pęka)

a thousand times

A thousand times I've gazed at you
Regards, the sum of all
No other world, no other sound,
No more besieged by nearing Fall
A thousand ships could not begin
To reckon all you're worth
O'er land and sea, through storm and stress
My fire, my air, my earth
A thousand sighs,
A thousand tears,
A thousand miles,
A thousand years'
From youthful morn to evening wise
This unity of you and I
Into the night but free of fear
Two souls belong inevitably
I'd write these words,
I'd voice these thoughts
I'd hold you close,
Aloft once more

ja nie tęsknię do ciebie
ja nie czekam już wcale
bez żalu - z żalem
moje dni zapisane jak droga
jak przez Boga zaklęta
mijam drzewa pijane
ja nie tęsknię do ciebie
bo nie da się tak tęsknić
i zarzucać poezji
że tak mało wyraża
jeśli jesteś to wołaj
pobiegnę z końca świata
ja nie tęsknię do ciebie
ja nie wołam już wcale
bez żalu - z żalem
moje dni zapisane jak droga
jak przez Boga zaklęte
mijam drzewa pijane
