Learning to Let Go

by Yafati

Copied!
veze kashe
And it's hard
latet lach lalechet
To let you go
aval meaz sheazavta
But since you left
ani kan choshev kol hazeman
I'm here thinking all the time
ma lehagid lach
What to say to you
tiri ani ze shetamid
See I'm the one who always
ratza lihyot sham bishvilech
Wanted to be there for you
im at tari li shevil ani harishon sheelech
If you show me a path I'm the first to walk it
ani lo makir af achat sheyodaat leragesh
I don't know anyone who knows how to touch
kamoch veeych at nogaat bi
Like you and how you touch me
vetamid ani yadati sheanachnu nitchaten
And I always knew we'd get married
kama shanim beyachad veat taasi li ben
A few years together and you'd give me a son
ani azmin et hahorim veat tagidi ken
I'd invite the parents and you'd say yes
aval pitom ze kara li
But suddenly it happened to me
anachnu lo beyachad
We're not together
azavta oti kacha
You left me just like that
himshachta lemakom acher
You moved on to another place
veze kol kach kaav li
And it hurt me so much
kimat venishbarti
I almost broke
ad shehevanti shelihyot gever
Until I understood that being a man
ze lilmod levater
Is learning to let go
kesheat mechabeket oto vechoneket oto bechiba
When you hug him and smother him with affection
lehitgaber
To overcome
lirot et hatov bechal yom velichyot
To see the good in every day and live
lo lirot rak otach
Not to see only you
ze lilmod lefargen
It's learning to be happy for others
ki im at ohevet oto veim tov
Because if you love him and if it's good
lech ito az ulay
For you with him then maybe
lilmod leshachrer
Learning to release
im ani ohev beemet
If I truly love
az latet lach latzet mechayay
Then to let you leave my life
lomed levater
Learning to let go
veat omeret sheze setam
And you say it's nothing
ani omer atem beyachad
I say you're together
kol shishi baneviim atem shotim vetzochakim
Every Friday on Neviim Street you're drinking and laughing
uvasof ochlim gam meotah tzalachat
And in the end you even eat from the same plate
veim tov lach az tov lach tov
And if it's good for you then fine good
ani lo egrom lach lirot et hasof
I won't make you see the end
ani lo achiv lach kemo sheet hichavt li
I won't hurt you like you hurt me
lo ki ani lo yachol rak ki yoter
Not because I can't just because I care
miday ichpat li
Too much
lo beyachad
Not together
azavta oti kacha
You left me just like that
himshachta lemakom acher
You moved on to another place
vaani kol kach kaasti
And I was so angry
ad shenimas li
Until I was fed up

Because I understood that being a man

Then to let you leave my life
tavini sheba li lamut kesherau etchem
Understand that I wanted to die when I saw you two
yoshvim batzad
Sitting on the side
vezot taut o shehu litef lach et hayad
And that's a mistake or he was stroking your hand
veze mikre o sheneshika bape zot haderech shelech
And that's a coincidence or a kiss on the mouth is your way
lehagid shalom keshemishehu levad
To say hello when someone is alone
veze nire ketzat temuha sheat kacha mesugelet
And it seems a bit strange that you're capable of
limtzo mishehu toch shavua meaz sheyatzata badelet
Finding someone within a week since you walked out the door
im at kacha mitnaheget kanire sheze beseder
If that's how you behave I guess it's fine
chapesi oti v d. v. n. v. tihyi bekesher
Look for me on D.O.N.B. stay in touch
