BALALAYKA

 

You are playing your sweet melody

And I’m melting like sugar in tea

You are whispering some gentle things

Touching my naked strings 

 

You can read my notes, you can get my key

You are holding me, you are playing me 

 

Like a bala-bala-bala-bala-layka

I’m your bala-bala-bala-bala-layka

Get the best of what I got

Music from my heart

I’m your bala-bala-bala-bala-layka

 

I am trembling like a moth in the wind

Feeling your cutting nails on my skin

And tonight you can get every bit

Of the music you need

 

You can read my notes, you can get my key

You are holding me, you are playing me 

 

Like a bala-bala-bala-bala-layka

I’m your bala-bala-bala-bala-layka

Get the best of what I got

Music from my heart

I’m your bala-bala-bala-bala-layka

 

My love, my hope, my tenderness – 

Three strings you’re playing, baby, yes

You know it’s real, you feel it’s true

I’m singing it for you 

 

Like a bala-bala-bala-bala-layka

I’m your bala-bala-bala-bala-layka

Get the best of what I got

Music from my heart

I’m your bala-bala-bala-bala-layka
