Plamenev, Alexandr Tevelev The Salt Air Ballad on the Piano

-There are salt air and light,
And splashing waves out of my sight…
With waves and seafoam,
In the storm
I made my way back home.

-I’ve been expecting you,
All this time in solitude!
My dearest, my love,
Alive!
You’ve managed to arrive!

-But you just cannot stay,
It calls from far away;
From your forgotten dreams,
From islands and the seas!

-So let the coastline be hidden in the mist,
I promise to get through!
Without calm seas and windstorms it's boring to exist!
But I … I cannot live without you!

-The stars drown in the dark that’s outside,
They’re gleaming as the stern light.
I must go away,
Away,
Across the Milky Way.
Believe me, dear, it’s true,
I cannot feel love without you.

-I know that you are mine,
And you are my sunshine!

-But I’m ready for the fight!

-But you just cannot stay,
It calls from far away;
From your forgotten dreams,
From islands and the seas!

-So let the coastline be hidden in the mist,
I promise to get through!
Without calm seas and windstorms it's boring to exist!
But I … I cannot live without you!

-But I just cannot stay,
It calls from far away;
From my forgotten dreams,
From islands and the seas!
So let the coastline be hidden in the mist,
I promise to get through!
Without calm seas and windstorms it's boring to exist!
But I … I cannot live without you!
