8th Floor

No one waits for her inside the house

She spots a stranger in the mirror

And the record spins her nearer

To the outcome of her day

You live inside the city

You forget how tall the trees can get

A bird sits on

A branch across

From my eighth floor window

And you can't really say

That it's an eighth floor branch

Cause trees don't have floors

And buildings do

Восьмой этаж

Восьмой этаж

Все высоко

Все под тобой

Вот идет домой

Карман пустой

Хоть милостыню просите

Три рубля на водку и буханку белого хлеба

А теперь, наверное, все дороже

И дорожки те забыты

А над ними паруса

Первый этаж

Я маленькая

Все высоко

Все надо мной

Восьмой этаж

Америка

Я высоко

Все подо мной

Я высоко...

I came in from the rain which

Wasn't really rain

It was just

January snow in denial

And something must have gotten lost

In the translation

Russian to English

And winter wasn't wintery today

She comes into the house

And no one waits for her inside the house

She spots a stranger in the mirror

And the record spins her nearer

To the outcome of her day

You live inside the city

You forget how tall the trees can get

A bird sits on a branch of my eighth floor window

A bird sits on a branch of my eighth floor window

A bird sits on a branch of my eighth floor window
