Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again Because a vision softly creeping Left its seeds while I was sleeping And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence In restless dreams, I walked alone Narrow streets of cobblestone 'Neath the halo of a street lamp I turned my collar to the cold and damp When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light That split the night And touched the sound of silence And in the naked light, I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more People talking without speaking People hearing without listening People writing songs that voices never shared And no one dared Disturb the sound of silence "Fools" said I, "You do not know Silence like a cancer grows Hear my words that I might teach you Take my arms that I might reach you" But my words, like silent raindrops fell And echoed in the wells of silence And the people bowed and prayed To the neon god they made And the sign flashed out its warning In the words that it was forming Then the sign said, "The words on the prophets are written on the subway walls In tenement halls" And whispered in the sound of silence

You're a mean one, Mr. Bogdan, You really are a fright. You're as charming as a cactus, You're as slippery as the night, Mr. Bogdan. You're a rotten apple with a wormy bite! You're a monster, Mr. Bogdan, Your heart's a block of ice. Your brain is full of cobwebs, You've got a heart that's hard as dice, Mr. Bogdan. I wouldn't trust you with a glance or a roll of the dice! You're a vile one, Mr. Bogdan, You have termites in your smile. You have all the tender sweetness Of a crocodile, Mr. Bogdan. Given the choice between the two of you, I'd take the crocodile! You're a foul one, Mr. Bogdan, You're a nasty, wasty skunk. Your heart is full of unwashed socks, Your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Bogdan. The three words that best describe you are as follows: Stink, stank, stunk! You're a crooked one, Mr. Bogdan, You're the king of spiteful souls. Your heart's a dense black coal, Full of miserable holes, Mr. Bogdan. Your soul is a swampy mire, Overflowing with unspeakable goals!
He caught you, in his orbit Your feet off the floor, you didn’t mind it You circled there, around his sun A solar flare, and now it’s done We’ve all been there before When you need, give me a call I’ll catch you, before you fall You can cry about, what you lost Your fated love, star crossed You hold your breath, i’ll hold your hand
Oooooooohh (Drown, drown, drown) Oooooooohh (Drown, drown, drown)
I was just a kid, barely thirteen Had my heart on my sleeve, living in a dream Saw her across the room, she caught my eye With a smile so wild, like a fire in the sky She said, "Come with me, let’s have some fun" I didn’t know what it meant, but I was on the run She showed me a world I never knew But when I dove in, I didn’t have a clue (Pre-Chorus) She took my hand, said “Don’t be scared” But the deeper I went, the less I cared She was my escape, but the road was long I thought I was strong, but I was wrong (Chorus) And I thought I loved her when I was thirteen But love turned to poison, chasing what I couldn’t see She gave me the taste, and it took me down Lost in the high, but I couldn’t hear the sound Of my heart breaking, fading away She left me when the lights turned gray I thought I loved her, but I was blind To the chains she wrapped around my mind (Verse 2) First it was just a drink, then just a pill She said, “Don’t worry, it’s all for the thrill” I chased that feeling, like I’d found my way But the deeper I sank, the more I’d pay She laughed and said, “You’re gonna be fine” But the longer we ran, the less we shined I couldn’t see it then, but I see it now She fed me the poison and then let me drown (Pre-Chorus) She took my hand, said “Don’t be scared” But the deeper I went, the less I cared She was my escape, but the road was long I thought I was strong, but I was wrong
[Verse 1 (First Singer)] Late at night, I replay it all in my head, The words I didn’t say, the things I should’ve said. You were my spark, my rhythm, my muse, But I got caught up, and I made us lose. Dancing in the rain, we lit the street on fire, Your laugh was the beat, your love, my only desire. But I stood silent when I should've fooooooought, Now I’m left with nothing but this empty thoooooooought. [Lift/Pre-Chorus (First Singer)] I should’ve told you, should’ve made you stay, But my silence let you slip away. Now the echoes of our laughter haunt me so, How do I let you know? [Chorus (Both Singers)] I miss you, I miss us, the way we used to feel, Spinning under neon lights, nothing felt so real. I’m sorry for the pain, for the things I didn’t do, But I still believe in me and you. I miss you, I miss us, the rhythm of our hearts, Dancing through the highs and lows, never fell apart. Now I’m standing here, hoping for a chance, Can we find our way back to our last dance? [Verse 2 (Second Singer)] Every picture on the wall, every memory’s clear, (clear) Your voice in my mind, like you’re still here. We’d stay up ‘til dawn, laughing till we’d cry, (cry!) Now I’m staring at the ceiling, asking myself why. (Why!) Your hand in mine, the warmth of your touch, Those moments were everything, they meant so much. I let you down, I broke the groooooooooove, Now I’m hoping it’s not too late to prooooooooove. (Ooooo!) [Lift/Pre-Chorus (Second Singer)] I should’ve held on (on!), should’ve let you know (know!), You were the one, my heart, my soul. Now I’m singing out loud (loud!), I need you back, (back) Can we find the track? [Chorus (Both Singers)] I miss you (you you you!), I miss us, the way we used to feel (feeeeel!), Spinning under neon lights, nothing felt so real. I’m sorry for the pain, for the things I didn’t do,(oooo!) But I still believe in me and you. I miss you (you!), I miss us, the rhythm of our hearts, Dancing through the highs and lows, never fell apart (oooo!). Now I’m standing here (oooo!), hoping for a chance, (oooo!) Can we find our way back to our last dance? [Bridge (Both Singers)] Let’s rewind the record, play our favorite song, Where we held each other, where nothing felt wrong. I’ll make it right, I’ll prove it to you, The rhythm of love, let’s start anew. [Final Chorus (Both Singers)] I miss you (ooooo!), I miss us, the way we used to feel, Spinning under neon lights, nothing felt so real.(oooo!) I’m sorry for the pain, for the things I didn’t do, But I still believe in me and you. (Ooo!) I miss you (youuuuu!), I miss us, the rhythm of our hearts, (oooo!) Dancing through the highs and lows, never fell apart. (Oooo!) Now I’m standing here, hoping for a chance, (ooo!) Can we find our way back to our last dance? [Outro (Both Singers)] I miss you, I miss us... The rhythm of love... I miss us
Предупредиха ме опасна си била, разбивала си много мъжките сърца, ако са верни всички слухове за теб, ами да взема да ти стана продуцент. Ела, хабиби, хабиби, при мен ела, нали си най-добрата казваш в любовта, в тебе влюбвали се много всеки ден, ами добре тогава пробвай се с мен. Oще първия ден ще си луда по мен, а беше свикнала съвсем мъжете след тебе да ходят, да ти се молят създаваш им проблем, ама не става с мен. Щом заспиш отивам си, самичка ще осъмнеш, няма номер да ти дам на които да звъннеш, тръпка дай ми, консумирам безотговорно, трябва да ме впечатлиш да искам повторно. К'во ми става не, не знам, к'во ми става не, не знам, К'во ми става не, не знам, като видя голото ти тяло и то за мене нещо май е ожадняло, сънищата мокри влизам без да се усетиш, к'во ще правя можеш само да се сетиш. К'во ми става не, не знам като видя голото ти тяло и то за мене нещо май е ожадняло. Сънищата мокри влизам без да се усетиш. К'во ще правя ли? Ще се сетиш, ще се сетиш, ще се сетиш.
[Verse] I’ve been running in circles lost in the haze Caught in a rhythm these endless days But something’s calling deep in my soul A spark ignites I’m letting it show [Chorus] Oh the night can’t hold me I’m breaking free Stars in my eyes yeah it's all I can see Dancing in shadows but feeling the light No more hiding I’m ready to shine bright [Verse 2] Chasing the echoes of what used to be Lost in the noise of a distant sea But I hear a whisper calling my name Telling me nothing will stay the same [Chorus] Oh the night can’t hold me I’m breaking free Stars in my eyes yeah it's all I can see Dancing in shadows but feeling the light No more hiding I’m ready to shine bright [Bridge] Climbing the mountains rising so high Breaking the chains letting my heart fly No turning back no place for fear With every step I’m drawing near [Chorus] Oh the night can’t hold me I’m breaking free Stars in my eyes yeah it's all I can see Dancing in shadows but feeling the light No more hiding I’m ready to shine bright
[Verse] Saltando charcos de la lluvia Con tus botas y tu risa Bailemos bajo el cielo abierto Los sueños juegan a la brisa [Verse 2] El acordeón suelta suspiros Mariposas en el viento Tu sombrero va girando Nuestros mundos en un cuento [Chorus] Vamos todos a bailar Las estrellas a soñar En el campo hay alegría Nuestras penas se irán ya [Verse 3] Siluetas contra el atardecer Los tambores hacen eco En el verde del pastizal Nuestros pies son un reflejo [Bridge] Los grillos dan el concierto Y la luna sonreirá Unidos por el ritmo eterno Nada más nos separará [Chorus] Vamos todos a cantar Las estrellas brillarán En el campo hay melodía Nuestras penas se irán ya
[Verse] La playa nos llama no hay prisa Sol brilla y el viento avisa Amigos juntos cada risa La vida es nuestra camisa [Verse 2] Las olas cantan melodía Nubes forman fantasía Con maría llega la alegría Despreocupados al mediodía [Chorus] Amigos juntos compartiendo El fin de semana fluyendo Las risas nunca van cayendo Nuestro espíritu libre moviendo [Verse 3] El fuego en la arena juega El humo sube y despega Luna llena la noche juega La brisa suave nos sosiega [Verse 4] Caminamos sin destino claro El mar siempre fiel aliado En nuestro rincón sagrado Exploramos sin pasado [Chorus] Amigos juntos compartiendo El fin de semana fluyendo Las risas nunca van cayendo Nuestro espíritu libre moviendo
