Thank You for the Meeting

lyrics

And I remain smiling
In the gravestone photo fifteen-by-twenty in size.
Thank you for the meeting,
I was pleased to see you.

I fancy meeting relatives and friends.
It's possible to listen to them, but impossible to talk to.
They always look dissatisfied,
And I'm, probably, the reason why.

Let's say goodbye, it's time for you to leave.
And these words are almost traditional:
“We were pleased to see you!
Sorry, it's time for us to leave, but you stay here.”

I'd rather you didn't bend you backs,
Straighten up when you leave.
And the words on the gravestone: “Rest in Peace”*
Don't give me any relief.

Let's say goodbye, it's time for you to leave.
And these words are almost traditional:
«I was pleased to see you!”
Sorry, it's time for her to leave, but I stay here.

I stay alone every single night,
And in the winter meetings aren't so frequent.
And the sight of your bent backs
Is the only thing crippling my stillness.

Let's say goodbye, it's time for you to leave.
And these words are almost traditional:
“I was pleased to see you!
Sorry, it's time for me to leave, but you stay here.”

И я остаюсь улыбаться
С пластинки пятнадцать на двадцать.
Спасибо за встречу.
Я рад был с тобой повидаться...

Люблю встречи - близкие и друзья.
Слушать можно - говорить нельзя.
Всегда чем-то недовольные.
Наверно повод - я.

Будем прощаться, вам пора.
И уже по традиции эти слова -
"Были рады с тобой повидаться!
Нам пора, прости, оставайся".

Не надо согнутых спин.
И когда уходишь - выпрямляйся.
Написано - помним, любим, скорбим.
Мне не легче от этой надписи.

Будем прощаться, тебе пора.
И уже по традиции эти слова -
"Была рада с тобой повидаться!
Мне пора, а ты оставайся".

По ночам остаюсь один,
И зимой нечастые встречи.
Только вид ваших согнутых спин
Мне мою тишину калечит.

Давай прощаться, тебе пора.
И уже по традиции эти слова -
"Была рада с тобой повидаться!
Мне пора, прости, оставайся".
