Старое кино (Staroe Kino)

maybe two tickets
for the last row
I haven't been to the movies in a long time
and you watch everything in a row

hundreds of modern films
are not on the screen
you and I are watching again
black and white cinema

you love Steve, you love McQueen
I'm a fan of James Dean
you love Antonioni
I'm a Tarkovsky admirer

sauces and pasta, expensive wine
together we watch cinema on the screen
watching old movies on the screen

you don't want to kiss
you ask not to disturb
you want to enjoy the movie
without looking away once or twice

and from your thoughts
I will hear words
how beautiful their clothes are
and wonderful times

you love Steve, you love McQueen
I'm a fan of James Dean
you love Antonioni
I'm a Tarkovsky admirer

sauces and pasta, expensive wine
together we watch cinema on the screen
watching old movies on the screen
