Say no more
I think you'll never understand
I have refused the same demand
All my life !

Say no more
In my book there can be no blame
When you pretend I have no shame
You're half right !
All along
You kept trying to pin me down
Turn me into your house clown ...
If I don't fit the bill ...
All the same
I loved you then
I love you still !

Want to know the truth ?
I caught a nasty bug
And when it got a hold of me
I could not shake it free !
A lasting blue note
Has been haunting me !
It's like an old mistress
Forever chasing me ...

But say no more
I may not be an easy man
But the way you played your hand
I couldn't stand !
It's too bad
There is much more we could have done !
But now those days are dead and gone
Nothing lasts !
All along
You made me feel this useless guilt
Can you look back on what we built ?
I wonder what you saw in me ...
Tell me was it real ?
Was it love ?
You tell me ...

Want to know the truth ?
I caught a nasty bug
And when it got a hold of me
I could not shake it free !
A lasting blue note
Has been haunting me !
It's like an old mistress
Forever chasing me ...

And though you think of it
As the cause of my fall !
Never mind, I'm blessed ... I'm here ... at all!

Перевод песни Ray Charles - Say no more (Замолчи)

Замолчи,
Мне кажется, ты никогда не поймешь
Я отвергал эту потребность
Всю свою жизнь

Замолчи,
В моей книге не может быть осуждения,
И даже когда ты стараешься - мне не стыдно.
Ведь ты наполовину права
Всегда.
Ты продолжала пытаться заставить меня выполнить свои обещания,
Превратить меня в своего домашнего клоуна.
Хоть я и не отвечаю всем твоим требованиям,
Тем не менее я продолжал тебя любить,
И люблю тебя до сих пор

Хочешь узнать правду?
Я заразился странной болезнью,
И когда она захватила контроль надо мной,
Я не мог так просто с ней справиться.
Постоянные унылые нотки
Преследовали меня,
Как-будто давняя моя любовь
Всплывала в памяти вновь и вновь

Но замолчи,
Пожалуй, со мной не просто,
Но твои руки - как они играют,
Я не могу устоять.
Так плохо,
Ведь мы могли столько сделать!
Но теперь эти дни в прошлом,
И ничего не осталось.
Постоянно ты заставляла меня чувствовать это бесполезное чувство вины,
Можешь ли ты оглянуться назад и увидеть,
что мы сделали?
Я восхищаюсь, что же ты во мне нашла,
Неужели это реально? Была ли это любовь?
Скажи мне...

Хочешь узнать правду?
Я заразился странной болезнью,
И когда она захватила контроль надо мной,
Я не мог так просто с ней справиться.
Постоянные унылые нотки
Преследовали меня,
Как-будто давняя моя любовь
Всплывала в памяти вновь и вновь

И хотя ты думаешь о всем этом,
Как о причине моего проигрыша.
Не беспокойся, я буду счастлив... я здесь...полностью

Translation of the song Ray Charles - Say no more (Shut up)

Shut up,
I think you'll never understand
I rejected this demand
All my life

Shut up,
In my book there can be no conviction,
And even when you try - I'm not ashamed.
After all, you're half right
Always.
You kept trying to get me to deliver on their promises,
To turn me into his home clown.
Even though I do not meet all your requirements
Nevertheless, I continued to love you,
And I love you still

Want to know the truth?
I had contracted a strange disease,
And when she seized control of me,
I couldn't just to cope with it.
Constant dull notes
Follow me,
As if my old love
Pop up in memory again and again

But shut up,
Perhaps not just with me,
But your hands - how they play,
I can't resist.
So bad
After all, we could have so much to do!
But now these days are in the past
And there's nothing left.
You constantly made me feel this useless guilt
Can you look back and see
what did we do?
I admire what you see in me,
Is it really? Was it love?
Tell me...

Want to know the truth?
I had contracted a strange disease,
And when she seized control of me,
I couldn't just to cope with it.
Constant dull notes
Follow me,
As if my old love
Pop up in memory again and again

And while you think about all this,
How about the reason for my loss.
Don't worry, I'll be happy... I'm here...fully
