Перевод песни Moloko - Absent minded friends

Well it’s a silly thing
That I’ve been wondering

Shall we drink a toast to
Absent minded friends
To all who turn the corner and
To those who went round the bend
Everybody raise your glasses
Drink and drown
Melancholy for the masses
Love come down

Well it’s a silly thing
That I’ve been wondering

Maybe you’ll never
Bridge the gulf
Baby you are just too sensitive
Are you numb enough?
Can we ever feel this
Impending void?
Have we become what we intended
To avoid?

Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till you’re aching.
Have you ever laughed till you cried?
Till your heart is breaking.
Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till your aching.
Have you ever laughed till your heart is breaking

(Well it’s a silly thing that I’ve been wondering)

Love is always riddled with
Selfishness
Few will find joy
In theirs big success
From the sublime to the ridiculous in the
Blink of an eye
Funny all too funny
You’re funny guy

If it’s too much to feel,
Come this way my friend
Try to keep it unreal
Feels good to let yourself descend
So pretend
We can transcend our everyday existences
No distances

How did we come undone?
Became what we’ve become

Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till you’re aching.
Have you ever laughed till you cried?
Till your heart is breaking.
Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till you’re aching.
Have you ever laughed till your heart is breaking

(How did we come undone?)
Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till your aching

(Become what we’ve become)
Have you ever laughed till you cried?
Till your heart was breaking

(How did we come undone?)
Have you ever smiled for too long?
(Became what we’ve become)
Have you ever laughed till your heart is breaking

How did we come undone?
Become what we’ve become.
How did we come undone?
Become what we’ve become.
