Lyrics

You walk alone there in the city.
Walk alone, and me you don’t recognize.
Tired and shy, yes, such a stubborn soldier.
Well, so what if I said a word to another man?
Well, and what if I said, maybe you’ll give in?
Maybe, maybe you’ll give in?!

You insist on leaving everything.
You insist on returning to the sand.
To return to everyone – what a stubborn man.
Perhaps you’ll kiss and see how good it is.
Perhaps you’ll kiss – and please don’t leave.
Don’t leave

Just give me your hand, come to rest.
Give me your hand, come to forget.
Give me, give me a hand, my love, without running away.
Give me your hand without knowing
What will happen tomorrow, if some time
You’ll yet return to me
Come back to me

You still look at me, look and are silent.
Perhaps you’ll ask already, which of the two of us is right?
You or I – oh, an unknown man laughs.
Alright, stop, because the road won’t run away from you.
Alright, then go in peace, and don’t forget me.
Don’t forget me

You insist on leaving everything.
You insist on returning to the sand.
To return to everyone – what a stubborn man.
Perhaps you’ll kiss and see how good it is.
Perhaps you’ll kiss – and please don’t leave.
Don’t leave

Just give me your hand, come to rest.
Give me your hand, come to forget.
Give me, give me a hand, my love, without running away.
Give me your hand without knowing
What will happen tomorrow, if some time
You’ll yet return to me

Just give me your hand, come to rest.
Give me your hand, come to forget.
Give me, give me a hand, my love, without running away.
Give me your hand without knowing
What will happen tomorrow, if some time
You’ll yet return to me
Come back to me
Come back to me
Come back to me
