Pink Martini Dosvedanya Mio Bombino Lyrics

The samovar is full of tea
You stare unblinkingly at me
While your car waits in the freezing rain

I know your soul calls Moscows home
But your heart belongs to Rome
So for years I've followed you in vain

But oh, will you ever know
What you are
Dosvedanya mio bambino
Dosvedanya mio bambino
There is a place where only you alone go
There is a world that only you alone know

Along an endless balcony
Above the Adriatic sea
I tried to storm the Kremlin of your heart

In Florence we were on the mend
But that mazurka had to end
We missed the naked trees of Gorky Park

But oh, will you ever know
What you've lost
Dosvedanya mio bambino Dosvedanya mio bambino
There is a place where only you alone go
There is a world that only you alone know

But oh, will you ever know
What you have
Dosvedanya mio bambino
Dosvedanya mio bambino
There is a place where only you alone go
There is a world that only you alone know

I heard you finally settled down
In a warm Italian town
So I took the train to see you there

Your wife is sweet and you're well fed
Your daughter tucked away in bed
Still you looked at me with great despair

I hear snow is falling on Red Square

"Valderi valdera
Valderi valdera
Valderi valdera
My knapsack on my back"
