**Just Nearby **

lyrics and music by Sasha Tkachuk

ART: Sasha Tkachuk, Leif Hansen (Drømmer), Phoenix

**Translation of song from Ukrainian to English :**

Do you remember our meeting,
We were tightly woven into one ball.
And now there's a trace inside,
As if fear has hidden in a corner.

Time flies forward, changing us,
We're growing up, as it should be.
Only my fire hasn't gone out yet,
And it's getting harder for me now...

Do you remember the nights, the moonlight's glow,
Shoulder to shoulder, and the world was ours together.
I'm so afraid now to lose it all by accident,
To destroy this fragile peace of ours.

And it's harder to breathe next to you.
Do you want me to get a star from the sky for you?
Do you want me to bring the dawn in my hands?
And do you want me to become your protection,
From any troubles and winter's woes?
Just give me a sign,
Answer me with a glance.
Can I just be near you?

All the jokes and dreams are etched in memory,
They don't let me sleep all night.
Before, it was simply where you and I were,
And now anxiety burns my soul.

Words scatter halfway,
As if an invisible obstacle is in their way.
How can I accept your pain,
To tell you how much I love you?

We move forward through the shadow of doubts and rains,
I dare not tear apart hundreds of dreams.
And how I want to bring back the warmth of those days,
Where love, like a rose, blossomed.
But now I look with a different gaze.

Do you want me to get a star from the sky for you?
Do you want me to bring the dawn in my hands?
And do you want me to become your protection,
From any troubles and winter's woes?
Just give me a sign,
Answer me with a glance.
Can I just be near you?

We move forward, as if that's how it should be,
Friendship is sacred, I say.
But to my heart, you are the highest reward.

I'm afraid to destroy everything,
I'm afraid to destroy everything.
But I have no more strength to be silent, my friend.
