[Verse 1]
A morning frost covers the orchard
But the cherries are all in bloom
A heavy stone rests on my shoulders
And leaving's all that's left to do
[Verse 2]
Give all I have to that stranger
Passing through, passing through
My life, my youth, my happiness
I bid adieu, I bid adieu
[Verse 3]
What's true, what's false, you see so clearly
While I, it seems, have lost my sight
The sureness of youth is pressing you forward
But life's still hidden from your eyes
[Verse 4]
And so, you say, you want your giants
If this be so, I wish you well
But be warned, they're not compliant
And only good in fairytales
[Verse 5]
There's no way out, no use in trying
I promisе you, I promise you
The train has pulled into thе station
Don your cape, lace your shoes
A morning frost covers the orchard
But the cherries are all in bloom
A heavy stone rests on my shoulders
And leaving's all that's left to do
[Verse 2]
Give all I have to that stranger
Passing through, passing through
My life, my youth, my happiness
I bid adieu, I bid adieu
[Verse 3]
What's true, what's false, you see so clearly
While I, it seems, have lost my sight
The sureness of youth is pressing you forward
But life's still hidden from your eyes
[Verse 4]
And so, you say, you want your giants
If this be so, I wish you well
But be warned, they're not compliant
And only good in fairytales
[Verse 5]
There's no way out, no use in trying
I promisе you, I promise you
The train has pulled into thе station
Don your cape, lace your shoes
