Алексей Модин - Волга
текст песни

We've grown older
But the Volga is still the same
You invite me to look at it
With my own eyes
We know everything ourselves
Our life is lived one-third of the way

Oh, heavenly firmament!
If you can, answer
Is life lived one-third of the way?
Or is that just the average?
The sun tans our skin to copper
And, so as not to die
We drink beer on Wednesdays
And, to live forever
Easily and carelessly
All the complicated things
We simplify in our minds
You come to me
Or I'll meet you -
That means evening is approaching
And so the whole summer somewhere in the city
We see the nights, we don't hide bottles in bags
On the old streets we became adults
Filled with the wind, we lost ourselves, we searched for answers

We've grown older
But the Volga is still the same
You invite me to look at it
With my own eyes
We know everything ourselves
Our life is lived one-third of the way

Yes, we've grown older
And what will happen next?
It's even unthinkable
The morning will punish us
But that's not scary
We'll meet in the same place
All our friends will be there
And will it really be like this until retirement?
Without garbage, dirt and mold
Will we stay together?
Will we sing these songs?
Whether angels or demons
And what haven't we done!
No one can erase these memories –
From the soul or from the body!
Our button-operated mobile phones
Will remind us of how we loved
No one can erase this
Our life is lived one-third of the way

We've grown older
But the Volga is still the same
You invite me to look at it
With my own eyes
We know everything ourselves
Our life is lived one-third of the way
