Lyrical

[intro] [verse 1] Here the fir trees’ paws tremble in the air, Here the birds chirp anxiously. You live in an enchanted wild forest, From which it is impossible to escape. Let the bird cherries dry in the wind, Let the lilacs fall like rain — I will take you away from here, To the palace where the pipes play. [chorus 1] I will take you away, away, away, From the shadows to the light of day. I will show you the world you’ve never seen, Just say you’ll come with me, my queen. [verse 2] Your world has been hidden from me and from the light By sorcerers for thousands of years. And you think that there is nothing more beautiful, Than this enchanted forest. Let there be no dew on the leaves in the morning, Let the moon quarrel with the cloudy sky — I will take you away from here anyway, To a bright tower with a balcony overlooking the sea. [chorus 2] I will take you away, away, away, From the shadows to the light of day. I will show you the world you’ve never seen, Just say you’ll come with me, my queen. [bridge] [verse 3] On what day of the week, at what time Will you come out to me cautiously? When will I carry you in my arms To a place where it is impossible to find? I will steal you if you like stealing — Have I wasted so much effort? [chorus 3] I will take you away, away, away, From the shadows to the light of day. I will show you the world you’ve never seen, Just say you’ll come with me… [outro] Agree to at least a paradise in a hut, If someone has occupied the palace
