Let it Be v.2

Verse 1

It's decided now, no turning back, I know

I left the fields I loved, let the winds blow

The poplars won't sing with their winged leaves above

They'll rustle alone, in the cold, lonely grove

Chorus

I'm the same as the lost, I've gone too far

There's no way back now, beneath this dark star

I belong to the streets, to the smoke and the din

A doomed man in a city that pulls me in

Verse 2

The low house will slump without me, I can see

My old dog is long dead, silent by the tree

On Moscow's crooked streets, tangled and worn

To die here was written, fated, since I was born

Chorus

I'm the same as the lost, I've gone too far

There's no way back now, beneath this dark star

I belong to the streets, to the smoke and the din

A doomed man in a city that pulls me in

Verse 3

I love this elm‑lined city, though it's grown so old

Sagging and weary, stories untold

Golden, drowsy Asia rests on the domes above

Sleeping in the twilight, wrapped in quiet love

Verse 4

And when the moon shines at night, God knows how it gleams

I walk with my head hung low, lost in my dreams

Through narrow alleys, to a tavern I know

Where the shadows are deepest, where the outcasts go

Bridge

Noise and chaos in that dreadful den

But I read my verses to the fallen women again

Drink with the outlaws, burn the night away

While my heart beats faster, stealing what I can't repay

Verse 5

My pulse races faster, words come out wrong

I say, "I'm just like you, lost and gone"

No escape now, the path is set and sealed

This is who I am, this is all I've wielded

Chorus

I'm the same as the lost, I've gone too far

There's no way back now, beneath this dark star

I belong to the streets, to the smoke and the din

A doomed man in a city that pulls me in

Verse 6

The low house will slump without me, I can see

My old dog is long dead, silent by the tree

On City's crooked streets, tangled and worn

To die here was written, fated, since I was born

Outro

No return...

No way home...

Just the city's cold embrace.

I've made my choice.

Let it be.
