Двадцать лет спустя [Dvadtsat' let spustya] [English translation]

I am asking you to please forget

All that has gone wrong

Let it go and try to understand

Where I am coming from

What I need to say you still don’t know

You are the only one to blame

All I know - it is a shame

To let you slip away

And see you go...

Memories of this one day I know, will last

We were waiting long

Feels so good to be with you at last

This evening is too short

I am asking you to be with me

Listen to my point of view

It's plain to see it's nothing new

That all I need is you

And only you

Hold my breath and I will pray

That twenty years from today

I’d keep you near me and say:

“This love is here to stay”…

Never had such happiness in love

I simply never knew

Ten decades like this alone with you

Would never be enough…

Thankful to the fate that treats me well

For your love that’s always new

At will I am indeed under your spell -

And all that I need is you

And only you

I close my eyes and I will pray

That twenty years from today

I hold you near me and say:

“This love is here to stay”…
