Music by Konstantin Meladze Original Russian lyrics by Konstantin Meladze English lyrics by Vladimir Holyak Just a painful thought crossed my troubled mind Bitter taste of life with no love to find Empty faces rush all around me I seek your caress but there's none for me Tell me why you treat me so don't you see I'm dying In this dungeon of despair without you No joy an' no sorrow There's no way to follow You have to discover There's no love to borrow There's no need to worry There's nowhere to hurry Today or tomorrow No joy an' no sorrow I was trying hard to accept my lot Where's your tenderness I dreamed such a lot And it seemed like I'd never find my way Your heart-breaking love leading me astray With my back against the wall can't you see I'm crying In this prison full of grief without you
