In a Stranger's Bed
Ikh lig in bet fun a fremdn man
Mir kenen zikh a bisl – genug zikh tsu barirn
Oder efsher oykh a libe tsu firn
Ikh kholem fun libe, ober vos kholemt er
Es iz fintster un in der fintster iz alts gringer
Er farmakht di oygn, shtrekt oys zayne finger
Er vil filn mayn kerper, vil filn mayne hent
Ober er vil nisht filn vos nokh in mir brent
Oy azoy, vi roykh fun a koymen
Oy azoy, vi roykh fun a ban
Oy azoy iz mame getraye
Di libe fun a man
How like the smoke of a chimney
How like the smoke of a train
This is the love, oh dear mother
The love of any man
In a stranger's bed I lie awake
I am ready to love someone I'll never love
His dark wet hair, his dark soft skin
His dark sad eyes, but what's within?
His more beautiful than anyone
I can marvel at him all through night
But what's it gonna get me when he's empty inside?
Ikh kholem fun libe
Ikh vil redn vegn Got un di velt
Ober er kholemt gor nisht, er redt nor vegn gelt
Ikh kholem fun libe
Ikh vil redn vegn Got un di velt
Ober er kholemt gor nisht, er redt nor vegn gelt
Oy azoy, vi roykh fun a koymen
Oy azoy, vi roykh fun a ban
Oy azoy iz mame getraye
Di libe fun a man
How like the smoke of a chimney
How like the smoke of a train
This is the love, oh dear mother
The love of any man
Ikh lig in bet fun a fremdn man
Mir kenen zikh a bisl –
Nisht genug zikh tsu barirn
Mir kenen zikh a bisl – genug zikh tsu barirn
Oder efsher oykh a libe tsu firn
Ikh kholem fun libe, ober vos kholemt er
Es iz fintster un in der fintster iz alts gringer
Er farmakht di oygn, shtrekt oys zayne finger
Er vil filn mayn kerper, vil filn mayne hent
Ober er vil nisht filn vos nokh in mir brent
Oy azoy, vi roykh fun a koymen
Oy azoy, vi roykh fun a ban
Oy azoy iz mame getraye
Di libe fun a man
How like the smoke of a chimney
How like the smoke of a train
This is the love, oh dear mother
The love of any man
In a stranger's bed I lie awake
I am ready to love someone I'll never love
His dark wet hair, his dark soft skin
His dark sad eyes, but what's within?
His more beautiful than anyone
I can marvel at him all through night
But what's it gonna get me when he's empty inside?
Ikh kholem fun libe
Ikh vil redn vegn Got un di velt
Ober er kholemt gor nisht, er redt nor vegn gelt
Ikh kholem fun libe
Ikh vil redn vegn Got un di velt
Ober er kholemt gor nisht, er redt nor vegn gelt
Oy azoy, vi roykh fun a koymen
Oy azoy, vi roykh fun a ban
Oy azoy iz mame getraye
Di libe fun a man
How like the smoke of a chimney
How like the smoke of a train
This is the love, oh dear mother
The love of any man
Ikh lig in bet fun a fremdn man
Mir kenen zikh a bisl –
Nisht genug zikh tsu barirn
