השקט שנשאר

Hasheket shenish'ar

The silence that remains

הייתי כעיוורת לאור היום Hayiti ke'iveret le'or hayom I was blind to the light of day
מרוב ההגיון לא נשאר מקום Merov hahigayon lo nish'ar makom From all the logic there was no room left
רועדת לידך והסם שבי עוד לא נגמר Ro'edet leyadcha vehasam shebi od lo nigmar Trembling beside you and the drug in me is not yet finished
נושמת לי ממך והטעם כבר מר Noshemet li mimcha vehata'am kvar mar I'm breathing you and the taste is already bitter
     
המבט אחר והקור חודר Hamabat acher vehakor choder The glance is different and the cold is piercing
אתה מסתתר, את גופי שובר Ata mistater, et gufi shover You're hiding, breaking my body
המבט אחר והקור חודר Hamabat acher vehakor choder The glance is different and the cold is piercing
איך עוד יום עובר בלי נשימה Ech od yom over bli neshima How another day goes by without a breath
     
לילה בא לאט, הזמן נעצר Laila ba le'at, hazman ne'etsar Nighttime comes slowly, time stands still
לילה ואתה השקט שנשאר Laila ve'ata hasheket shenish'ar Nighttime and you are the silence that remains
רגע אחד נופלת איתך בסוף המשחק Rega echad nofelet itcha besof hamischak Falling with you for one moment at the end of the game
(ורק השקט שנשאר) (Verak hasheket shenish'ar) (And only the silence that remains)
     
With dozen lonely nights in my empty bed With dozen lonely nights in my empty bed  
Waiting for your touch, drying tears instead Waiting for your touch, drying tears instead  
I can't forget them I can't forget them  
Promises you made had no faith Promises you made had no faith  
You never really kept them You never really kept them  
And now it's goodbye And now it's goodbye  
     
Oh, now that love is gone Oh, now that love is gone  
Where do I belong? Where do I belong?  
Was it right or wrong? Was it right or wrong?  
Look at me now Look at me now  
     
Finally I know it's time to say goodbye Finally I know it's time to say goodbye  
Suddenly all by myself I feel alive Suddenly all by myself I feel alive  
I can't live the lie, no reason to cry I can't live the lie, no reason to cry  
But now it's just time, ooh... But now it's just time, ooh...  
(It's time to say goodbye) (It's time to say goodbye)  
     
Finally tonight (I know) I feel alive Finally tonight (I know) I feel alive  
Can't live the lie, no reason to cry Can't live the lie, no reason to cry  
But now it's just time, oh... But now it's just time, oh...  
(ורק השקט שנשאר) (Verak hasheket shenish'ar) (And only the silence that remains)

The final verse was sung in English at ESC as "And now it's time to say goodbye"
