(Intro)
(The sound of rain, quiet keyboards, barely audible female backing vocals, singing "ah-ah-ah")
E... Yeah... Just rain...
(Verse 1 - Hip-Hop)
I'm walking through the city, the glare of streetlights in the puddles.
Hood on my head, the cold inside and outside.
These aren't tears, it's just the rain hitting my face so boldly.
Thoughts cut sharply, memory like old film.
Remember that cramped courtyard? And the heady scent of lilacs?
Every petal on the branches was like our tomorrow.
I was scribbling our names on the bench in the evening,
I thought it was eternity, I thought time couldn't heal us.
But it cripples. The city is the same, but empty.
I'm yours under this sky, but not yours anymore.
And a gray strand of hair at my temples reminds me of the years.
I was waiting for you then. You didn't come. What a disaster.
(Chorus - Pop, female vocals)
Where the lilacs bloomed, in our old garden,
Under the cold rain, I still wait for you!
You remember how I believed,
That we would meet again, flying through the years!
The years have separated us, but in my heart lives,
That May evening that will call us!
(Verse 2 - Hip-Hop)
Crossroads, people, shadows flying past.
I searched for similar ones, wasted my nerves, wasted my time.
It was a burden—to live with the hope that any minute
Your number would ring, the hands would turn.
But the dial tone was silent, and the dial tones of my soul.
The silence screamed at me: "Forget and don't breathe."
And I believed in a miracle, that somewhere you were alone
Looking at the same sky and unable to sleep to the bottom.
All that stands between us is kilometers and fog,
Unfinished whiskey and self-deception.
I watch the drops trickling down the glass...
I still love you. I'm not lying.
(Chorus - Pop, female vocals)
Where the lilacs bloomed, in our old garden,
Under the cold rain, I'm still waiting for you!
You remember how I believed,
That we would meet again, flying through the years!
The years have separated us, but in my heart lives,
That May evening that will call us!
(Bridge - Rap insert, female vocals, more sensual and melodic)
(The music fades, leaving a light beat and keyboards)
You didn't come then... And I stood until dark.
And every minute felt like an eternity, to the bottom.
The lilac dropped tears onto my wet palms,
Whispering, "He's not here, but my heart remembers him."
I believed... Do you hear? I believed so strongly!
That through all the snowstorms, through closed doors,
You'll come back. Again. Just say to me, "Hello..."
And melt the ice of these endlessly long years...
(Chorus - More emotional, with powerful backing vocals)
