Dance
Lyrics and melody: Shlomo Artzi
Dance, she told me, dance
The cypresses didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry
Dance while you still can
I’m not cut out for dance class.
Her young head on my head
You won’t find such cypresses in the city anymore
Love as long as fit
By the way, she told me love me
Until today kind of odd
I didn’t understand a thing
It’s her early age or my late age
Until today around five [and] thirty
A shadow falls from the cypresses’ tops
She says: let it go, is this kind of sunset
Dance, she told me, dance
The cypresses are in the sky we’re still here
Dance without being stopped
We won’t be able to get out of here
Until today kind of odd…
It’s allowed to lose one’s head
At her age I touched a cypress too
It’s better to dance (for) half a minute
Better than to lose it
Until today kind of odd…
Now between a few cypresses
It’s me who dances…
Pretty much alone.
