by Alexander Abalakov

Nobody

From the mystery of universe you came to my life
To fulfill it with care and love
But I did not understand that

I took as for granted and was tough
I was demanding your love even it was there
And you did not understand that

Child after child came one after another
We did not care about things but sole
And our parents did not understand that

We went long way together
And still in love as a new couple
And nobody understands that

You are free to love anyone
And I still will be around to adore you
And even God can not understand that
