Свобода или сладкий плен [Svoboda ili sladkiy plen] [English translation]

First verse:

So tiny summer flew by

Sadly smiling covered by a wave

Like an autumn leaf gone with the wind

I'm in a hurry to fix mistakes, made not by me

But I don't want to walk on the edge

To read indifference on their faces

It's as if I flip through blank pages again

Chorus:

I just waited for you my whole life, when it seemed like there's no point

When to every cry of my heart I heard silence answering

I just waited for you all my life and didn't expect anything in return

What is love for you, tell me! Freedom or sweet captivity?

Freedom or sweet captivity?

Second verse:

Everything stopped in a delicate balance

For one moment and started running again

And no one can see the tears through the smile

And no one knows full truth except for only you

But I don't feel like walking on the edge

To read indifference on the faces

It's as if I flip through blank pages again

Chorus:

I just waited for you my whole life, when it seemed like there's no point

When to every cry of my heart I heard silence answering

I just waited for you all my life and didn't expect anything in return

What is love for you, tell me! Freedom or sweet captivity?

I just waited for you my whole life, when it seemed like there's no point

When to every cry of my heart I heard silence answering

I just waited for you all my life and didn't expect anything in return

What is love for you, tell me! Freedom or sweet captivity?

Freedom or sweet captivity? Freedom or sweet captivity?
