Until I Met You

I lived in a black-and-white frame where the sound was muted
Counted the floors, but forgot why I came, completely diluted
Cold coffee cup, and the city — just a blurred sketch
I was falling upwards, caught in a gravity stretch
The calendar turned pages just for the show
An empty route, a lighthouse with no glow


I thought the heart was just a motor inside
A beating rhythm where no feelings hide
No one told me the sky could change its hue...

Припев
I was just sleeping with my eyes open
Until I met, until I met you
All the songs about love were just words unspoken
Until your voice broke through
Now I know how the silence sounds
When I am no longer alone in these bounds
The world was closed, a wall of stone
Until I met... you alone


Now every breath burns like the very first sip
I see the colors, I feel the grip
Yesterday's "me" is a stranger in the glass
A shadow wandering through the cold grass
You taught me to breathe, not fearing the height
All that is real now — is your light


And let them say that nothing lasts forever
You are my only light, my only endeavor
I cancel all the past days and years...

Припев
I was just sleeping with my eyes open!
Until I met, until I met you!
All the songs about love were just words unspoken
Until your voice broke through!
Now I know how the silence sounds
When I am no longer alone in these bounds!
The world was closed, a wall of stone
Until I met... you alone!


If you vanish — the stars will go out at once
I'll turn to dust, invisible in response
Don't let go! I won't survive the "before"!
You are everything! You are everything and more!




Припев
I was just sleeping with my eyes open!
(Until I met you...)
All the songs about love were just words unspoken
Until your voice broke through!
Now I know how the silence sounds!
(Your silence...)
The world was closed, a wall of stone...


Until I met you.
