Prva ljubav [English translation]

BACK THEN I DIDNT KNOW ANYTHING

AND I DIDN’T BELIEVE

THAT THERE IS SADNESS IN THE WORLD

THE ONLY IMPORTANT THIG WAS

TO BECOME A LEFT WINGER

OR CENTER FORWARD OF SCHOOL TEAM

THEN SUDDENLY I MET

WARMEST PART OF THE SUMMER

THOSE WERE HER EYES

SHE HAD BLONDE HAIR

AND ON THE TOP OF HER HEAD

WHITE SILK RIBBON

FIRST LOVE CAME QUIETLY, UNINVITED, ALONE..

FOR ALL TIMES HID SOMEWHERE, DEEP IN US

WHEN SCHOOL TIME WAS OVER

CASES AND THEOREMS

COMIC BOOKS UNDER THE BENCH

SHE WASN’T A GIRL ANYMORE

SHE STARTED TO USE MAKE UP

AND TO WISH EXPENSIVE THINGS

THAT’S HOW EVERY DAY

SHE BECAME MORE OF A STRANGER TO ME

I SUSPECTED WHAT WILL COME

SO I STOPPED WORRYING

HOW TO GET THE STARS FOR HER

SHE BECAME DISTANT FOR ME

FIRST LOVE CAME QUIETLY, UNINVITED, ALONE

FOR ALL TIMES HID SOMEWHERE DEEP IN US

TODAY SHE IS ON 7TH HEAVEN

THEY SAY TO ME THAT SHE’S EXPECTING A BABY

SHE FOUND SAFETY, HAPPINESS, AND HOME

SHE HAS A HOUSBAND ENGINEER

WHO HAS A BRIGHT CAREER

AND A PLACE IN HIGH SOCIETY

AND I STILL STEAL THE DAYS FROM GOD

I STILL KNOW, I STILL CAN

TO MAKE A PEACE FOR MYSELF

I’M STILL HAPPY I EXIST

I WRITE SONGS, COUNTING STARS

I’M STILL THE SAME SCATTERBRAIN

FIRST LOVE CAME QUIETLY, UNINVITED, ALONE

FOR ALL TIMES HID SOMEWHERE DEEP IN US..
