Я хочу быть с тобой [Ja hochu byt' s toboj] [English translation]

I have tried to leave love,

I would take a sharp razor

And set myself right.

I hid in the basement, I sliced,

The thin leather straps on my skin,

Constricting my weak chest.

I wish I were with you,

I wish I were with you,

[How] I wish I could be with you,

I wish I were with you,

And I will be with you,

Stuck in the room with a white ceiling,

With a right to hope,

Stuck in the room with city views,

With faith in love.

Your name became different a long while ago,

Your eyes lost their hue,

Lost forever, I know.

Drunken doctor told me:

You are no more,

The fireman gave me a paper,

Your home is burnt down.

But I wish I were with you,

I wish I were with you,

[How] I wish I could be with you,

I wish I were with you,

And I will be with you,

Stuck in the room with a white ceiling,

With a right to hope,

Stuck in the room with city views,

With faith in love.

I was breaking glass,

Like chocolate,

Was cutting all these fingers because they cannot,

They cannot caress you anymore.

And I looked at these faces

And could not forgive

Them all, 'cause they didn't have you,

And they can still live.

But I wish I were with you,

I wish I were with you,

[How] I wish I could be with you,

I wish I were with you,

And I will be with you,

Stuck in the room with a white ceiling,

With a right to hope,

Stuck in the room with city views,

With faith in love.

Stuck in the room with a white ceiling,

With a right to hope,

Stuck in the room with city views,

With faith in love.
