Returning Walk

makshiv laradyo bamechonit, shomea shir atzuv shel ge'nis
Listening to the radio in the car, hearing a sad song by Janis
dofek al etz, machlif galgal, mashlich kadur shel tenis
Knocking on wood, changing a tire, tossing a tennis ball
bechal sipur shemistayem shomim basof tzeliley gitara
In every story that ends you hear guitar notes at the close
vehaolam nisgar pitom bechal otzmat haseara
And the world shuts down suddenly with all the storm's force
at potachat ta'chalon, bocha li shaal bayit
You open the window, crying to me from home
ani cholem alayich od veor panayich kayitz
I still dream about you and the light of your face is summer
veze im habuzuki menagen li al haboker
And that guy with the bouzouki plays me a song about the morning
korea li et halev eych kama at moshechet
Tearing my heart apart how much you pull me in
bediuk sheat holechet al ze ani choshev
Just as you're leaving that's what I'm thinking about
erev yored, lo tashuvi
Evening falls, you won't return
yom shel atzvut, kach katuv li
A day of sadness, so it's written for me
teni lechabek otach emesh
Let me hold you close last night
veze lo ozer, veze lo ozer
And it doesn't help, and it doesn't help
erev yored, lo tashuvi
Evening falls, you won't return
yom shel atzvut, kach katuv li
A day of sadness, so it's written for me
veod tekufa mistayemet
And another season comes to an end
kemo hiluch chozer, kemo hiluch chozer
Like reverse gear, like reverse gear
veekev hamatzav bachutz ani yotze leat midati
And given what's going on outside I'm slowly losing my mind
yom shel atzvut, shachachti shuv lechabek otach kesheyatzati
A day of sadness, I forgot again to hug you when I left
makshiv laradyo bamechonit mulo ruchot hasetav hamitgaberot
Listening to the radio in the car against the rising autumn winds
kesheani batzad, semol o yamin, kashe li ta'emet lirot
When I'm on the side, left or right, it's hard for me to truly see
yarecha shuv over betzomet ananim
The moon crosses again at the junction of clouds
mima ani mefached im lo rak meatzmi
What am I afraid of if not only myself
veze im habuzuki menagen li shir atzuv ki
And that guy with the bouzouki plays me a sad song because
kulanu ketzat domim vechama at moshechet
We're all somewhat alike and how much you pull me in
bediuk kesheat holechet abesurdi lifamim
Just as you're leaving absurd at times
kemo hiluch chozer
Like reverse gear
makshiv laradyo bamechonit, shomea shir atzuv shel ge'nis
Listening to the radio in the car, hearing a sad song by Janis
dofek al etz, machlif galgal, mashlich kadur shel tenis
Knocking on wood, changing a tire, tossing a tennis ball
