Description
Sometimes love ends not loudly, but beautifully - like a sunset that no one applauds, but for some reason everyone remembers. There is a feeling of ‘it's a pity, but it's right’ in the air, and the heart, like a tired tourist, finally sits down to rest. No scandals, no drama, simply because all good things don't have to last forever.
This song has a rare calmness - when the pain doesn't tear you apart, but gently lets you go. When you don't want to return, but to preserve: the memory, the warmth, the beauty of the moment, before it fades away. And let everyone go their own way, but the feeling remains that once all this was real, to the point of goosebumps, to the end, to a beautiful ‘goodbye’.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Sweet eyes, tell me where you have gone
Long nights, barely holding on
To something someone
Who lost all its flavour
The taste of a stranger
Aaah
Tongue tied, soaking in silent awe
Grey sky, knocking on our front door
Should we just stay put
And watch it all happen
(No)
Don't wanna end up hating you
Don't wanna drag us through the dirt
Don't wanna end up staying
Longer than we're meant cause, some things are just destined to end
I just wanted you to know
The reason that I had to go
Was so we could leave it beautiful
So we could leave it beautiful
I'm sorry for the sudden fold
But somethings are better left unknown
So let's just leave it beautiful
Cause we were so damn beautiful
Beauty, in loving and letting go
A new leaf, we got what we came here for
A goodbye, a real sign
That we're going nowhere
Oh god we're so over
Ahhh
But once upon a time we were so beautifully aligned
We danced over the hurdles, we were happy and alive
But somewhere along the way, we got so sticky, full of stains
So I (I walk away, I walk away)
Walk away
I just wanted you to know
The reason that I had to go
Was so we could leave it beautiful
So we could leave it beautiful
I'm sorry for the sudden fold
But somethings are better left unknown
So let's just leave it beautiful
Cause we were so damn beautiful
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ohhh
So let's just leave it beautiful
Ohhh
So let's just leave it beautiful
