Paris

haahava shelanu nolda
Our love was born
al chof bakineret
On a shore by the Kinneret
achshav hakineret zara li
Now the Kinneret feels foreign to me
haadama hoyta li chama
The ground was warm beneath me
hatechelet mueret
The blue sky was lit
achshav kol pina po kara li
Now every corner here feels cold to me
az lakachti et atzmi
So I took myself
venasati lefariz
And went to Paris
lenakot et harosh lishvuayim
To clear my head for two weeks
aval kol ma sheani choshevet
But all I keep thinking
ze eych hair hazot hoyta yoshevet
Is how this city would have looked
yafe al haeynayim
Beautiful on your eyes
al haeynayim shelecha
On your eyes
haahava shelanu moshcha
Our love drew
pas shel or mealey
A streak of light above it
vetzova kol davar sheasinu
And colored everything we did
haachzava shelanu holcha tzamud acharey
Our disappointment followed close behind it
vehofcha et kol ma shehayinu
And turned everything we were
az lakachti et atzmi venasati lefariz
So I took myself and went to Paris
lenakot et harosh lishvuayim
To clear my head for two weeks
aval kol ma sheani choshevet
But all I keep thinking
ze eych hair hazot hoyta yoshevet
Is how this city would have looked
yafe al haaniyim
Beautiful on your eyes
al haaniyim shelecha
On your eyes
tipusim borchov
Characters on the street
im hasafa hazot shelahem
With that language of theirs
arayot shel zahav
Golden lions
chatul mitnamnem
A cat dozing off
kol gan kol simta
Every garden, every alley
hakol po chaser
Everything here is missing
et ma shehayita omer
