One of My Favorite Songs of All Time.

Bocheh El Hakirot בוחה אל הקירות Crying to the Walls by David Broza



English Translation:

CRYING TO THE WALLS

Sky of sorrow is upon me, and the night
is dropping like the candlewax
the sickle moon is cold - from above
tells me go on and don't break down

The night train is full of longing
and I'm at the platform waiting as though for a miracle
I have a coat of loneliness - torn
tells me to move and still search

And again a longing
hurt touched
with a poison of memories
my body without your body
again fades and sinks
sinks
sinks
here alone between the walls
and I cry, and I cry
and I cry to the walls
and I cry, and I cry
and I scream to the walls
the sun shines in the city that's strange to me
I don't know where the streets lead to
only the one that walks to you - he will call to me
look how he'll call to me
he will tell me to come
to walk into ruin again in your eyes
to hug you again, for you to hug me again
you didn't leave footprints for me to go after you
you left your face scorched in my eyes

And again a longing
hurt touched
with a poison of memories
my body without your body
again fades and sinks
sinks
sinks
here alone between the walls
and I cry, and I cry
and I cry to the walls
and I cry, and I cry
and I scream to the walls
