We Just Couldn't Say Goodbye [Russian translation]

We thought that love was over

That we were really through

I said I didn't love him

That we'd begin anew

And you can all believe me

We sure intended to

But we just couldn't say goodbye

The chair and then the sofa

They broke right down and cried

The curtains started waving

For me to come inside

I tell you confidentially

The tears were hard to hide

And we just couldn't say goodbye

The clock was striking twelve o'clock

It smiled on us below

With folded hands it seemed to say

"We'll miss you if you go"

So I went back and kissed him

And when I looked around

The room was singing love songs

And dancing up and down

And now we're both so happy

Because at last we've found

That we just couldn't say goodbye

People in love are funny

They're mighty hard to explain

One minute they quarrel

Then they're back together again

Take my case for instance

We had a little fuss

Now listen, ladies and gentlemen

Here’s what happened to us

I said I didn't love him

That we'd begin anew

But we just couldn’t say goodbye

The chair and then the sofa,

They broke right down and cried

I tell you confidentially

The tears were hard to hide

And we just couldn't say goodbye

So I went back and kissed him

And when I looked around

The room was singing love songs

And dancing up and down

And now we're both so happy

Because at last we've found

That we just couldn't say goodbye
