JOHN LENNON:

Дай-ка вспомнить,
Мне тогда было тринадцать, что ли?
Или четырнадцать?
Двадцать два?
Хотя, почему бы и не двенадцать?
Ты скажешь мне: - Прощай, - и сразу тут,
Думаешь, что слёзы побегут?
Хоть сердце крикнет: - Нет, не отпускай!
А всё-таки скажу тебе:- Прощай.
Будь рядом кто с душою, как кристалл,
Тогда я не ходил бы, а летал.
Пускай мои запросы чересчур,
Но терять тебя я не хочу.
Я знаю всем вокруг известный грех:
Ты сердце можешь грохнуть как орех.
"AH, REMEMBER THIS?
WHY, I MUST HAVE BEEN THIRTEEN WHEN THIS CAME OUT!
OR WAS IT FOURTEEN?
OR WAS IT TWENTY-TWO?
I COULD HAVE BEEN TWELVE ACTUALLY."
JUST BECAUSE YOU LEFT AND SAID GOODBYE,
DO YOU THINK THAT I WILL SIT AND CRY?
EVEN IF MY HEART SHOULD TELL ME SO,
DARLING, I WOULD RATHER LET YOU GO.
JUST BECAUSE I WANT SOMEONE WHO'S KIND,
WITH A HEART AS GOOD AND PURE AS MINE.
BUT MAYBE I AM ASKING FOR TOO MUCH,
DARLING, PLEASE DON'T EVER BREAK MY HEART.
I KNOW YOU THINK YOU'RE SMART,
JUST RUNNIN' AROUND BREAKING LOVERS HEARTS.
JUST BECAUSE YOU LEFT AND SAID GOODBYE, HEY!
DO YOU THINK THAT I WILL SIT AND CRY?
EVEN IF MY HEART SHOULD TELL ME SO,
DARLING, I WOULD RATHER LET YOU GO.
UH-UH-UH -
"THIS IS DOCTOR WINSTON O'BOGGIE SAYING GOODNIGHT
FROM RECORD PLANT EAST, NEW YORK.
WE HOPE YOU HAD A SWELL TIME!
EV'RYBODY HERE SAYS "HI".
GOODBYE."
JUST BECAUSE YOU LEFT AND SAID GOODBYE,
DO YOU THINK THAT I WILL SIT AND CRY?
EVEN IF MY HEART SHOULD TELL ME SO,
DARLING, I WOULD RATHER LET YOU GO.
UH-UH-UH, GOODBYE!
UH-UH-UH, SO LONG!
BEEN A LONG YEAR!
