Number 26

In the buildings nearby electricity gets less,
Radio is playing very low,
Foot is on gas pedal that I now gonna press,
Leaving dirty traces on the snow.

Seems to me to be the time when nobody sings
Even after snack and after boozing
I don't recognise the voice when telephone rings
Finding much more less than I was losing...

Chorus:

Number twenty six, number twenty six,
I remember all your romantic tricks
And I still regret
All mistakes I've done
For I must instead
Call you number one.

We are just the cards
In the hands of fate,
We are like the parts
Of the broken plate,
So when it starts,
Feeling slowly fades,
You're the king of hearts,
I'm the queen of spades.


Cigarettes are flashing in the dark like magic sticks
I am to become a voodoo poppet
I remember every needle, number twenty six,
You would start and I will never stop it.

And I will be thinking during years, days and weeks
That without you I'm slowly dying
And I will be waiting for you, number twenty six,
Although there is nothing to rely on

Chorus


All internal organs hotter than the scorching coal
All I need is to resist this heating
I'm afraid that finally I'll never see my goal
And my heart is dangerously beating

Leaving one another I still damn about it,
And I am still waiting for a shout
Find again each other in this city semi-lit
We will find each other in the crowd
Chorus:

Kiss me with a hug,
Hug me with a kiss,
You will be my drug,
I will be your bliss,
I am standing still,
I will not complain,
Hurt me with a pill,
Heal me with a pain.
