Lyrics and translation Arsen Dedić - Vraćam Se

Vraćam Se

Ona duga putovanja, dani rasuti u snijegu
Zar je srcu sve to trebalo da shvati?
Ovo mi more više znači
Ti će mi ljudi više dati

Oni gradovi daleki još se dalji danas čine
Niti zvijezde nisu bile tako sjajne
Šume su pute svoje krile
A dvorci čuvali su tajne i od nas

Vraćam se tu, da ti kažem
Ovo sunce nek mi sja
Vraćam se tu, draga
To su luke iz mog sna

Vraćam se tu
Na toj zemlji gradim dom
Vraćam se tu, i kažem draga
Sve ću dijeliti sa njom

Dok smo tražili svoj dio, dio svijeta, dio sreće
Dok smo slijedili te ljubavi iz bajke
Zvalo je more svake noći
I blage oči moje majke

Možda pošli bismo dalje, da se ne vratimo nikad
Ali dobro su nas čuvali ti lanci
Za toplu obalu djetinjstva
Bili smo vezani ko čamci, život sav

Vraćam se tu, da ti kažem
Ovo sunce nek mi sja
Vraćam se tu, draga
To su luke iz mog sna

Vraćam se tu
Na toj zemlji gradim dom
Vraćam se tu, i kažem draga
Sve ću dijeliti sa njom
A-a-a

Vraćam se tu

I'm Coming Back

Oh, those long journeys, days scattered in the snow
Did my heart need all this to understand?
This sea means more to me
These people will give me more

Those faraway cities seem even further today
Not even the stars were as bright
The forests have hidden their paths
And the palaces have kept their secrets from us

I'm coming back there, to tell you
Let this sun shine on me
I'm coming back there, my dear
These are the ports of my dreams

I'm coming back there
On that land, I'll build a home
I'm coming back there, and I'll tell you, my dear
I'll share everything with her

While we were looking for our share, a share of the world, a share of happiness
While we were following those fairytale loves
The sea was calling every night
And the gentle eyes of my mother

Maybe we would have gone further, never to return
But those chains kept us safe
To the warm shores of childhood
We were tied like boats, our whole lives

I'm coming back there, to tell you
Let this sun shine on me
I'm coming back there, my dear
These are the ports of my dreams

I'm coming back there
On that land, I'll build a home
I'm coming back there, and I'll tell you, my dear
I'll share everything with her
A-a-a

I'm coming back there
