PRAYER FOR LOVE (MOLENIE O LYUBVI )
(Thom Moore) Faith won't heal up everything:
The wound grows and you believe in love.
Walk around feeling cut in two.
Wide open, with your hearth on view.
All you bereaved, all you besotted boys in need.
When love won't heed you, why, why believe she will?
Chorus
[ O Lyubvi molyu otchayanno ]
Say it on your knees
Crying like a baby "Please, please, please!"
Crying hoping maybe
[ O Lyubvi molyu otchayanno ]
Say it on your knees.
Oh, so sharp, and way too cool,
Love's bright and biggest fool
Has to work on speaking slow
To think hard and to lie low.
Will you believe? All you bedazzled boys in need.
[ V krayu dalyokom, chuzhie ne nuzhny ]
Chorus
Candle is a splendid thing;
The room glows, and the candle sings:
"Fly up to the only light,
Ev'ry, ev'ry tiny wing"
The moth inside you
Bolts off to join the beautiful;
It flies and dies.
So quickly, quickly wise.
Chorus
(Recorded by Thom Moore om 'Dreamer in Russia')
