The Solace

Obrad Daljevic 1953 (Lusci Palanka)



If you’re still lonely
Come to see me again
But forget affairs and exciting loves
Bring me some worlds of solace
For our bygone days
To ease off a hot hand
Where you left only the pain...

Do you remember Danny
A wistful night in December
When I was waiting for you,
leeward and lovelorn
I didn’t abide in that present time
A deep true love
is disappearing forever
I didn’t abide in that present time
Such a tardy dream
The dream will come back never…

But
You don’t know Danny
That even rainy drops
Are killing those blue doleful wishes
You have been only
The shadow from someone else
Like wrongful obsessions
Far and away lost lady…

When one sore desire
Goes away in memory’s page
Like that cold night
On the hither side of old birch
My star is made by…
One wiped warm rip
And a meek midnight sun
And a newborn love…

Back vocal:
It’s my life, a meek midnight sun
It’s my life, a newborn love…
