Lyrics and translation Parni Valjak - Nije Pomoglo

Nije Pomoglo

Jurio sam gore, dole
Bacalo me okolo
Od crnog mraka me dijelila
Tanka linija

I što sve nisam probao
Samo da zaboravim
Tvoj osmijeh blag i svaki trag
Iz glave da ih izbacim
Oooo, nije pomoglo

Hodao sam samim rubom
Iznad ponora
I bio sam na pragu puta
Bez povratka

I što sve nisam radio
Samo da zaboravim
Tvoj osmijeh blag i svaki trag
Iz glave da ih izbacim
Oooo, nije pomoglo

I popio sam litru rakije
Da se tuga sakrije
A kad se čovjek nalije
Svi ventili otkače

Pa sam radio budalu od sebe
A sve samo zbog tebe
Nemaš pojma kol′ko si me koštala

Moja je tuga velika
Kao neka pećina
Al' me nećeš čut′ da kažem "vrati se"

It Didn't Help

I roamed up high and low
You threw me around
A fine line separated me from the black darkness
A fine line

And what haven't I tried
Just to forget
Your gentle smile and every trace
To cast them out of my mind
Oooo, it didn't help

I walked along the very edge
Above the abyss
And I was on the brink of a path
Of no return

And what haven't I done
Just to forget
Your gentle smile and every trace
To cast them out of my mind
Oooo, it didn't help

And I drank a liter of rakija
To hide the sadness
And when a man gets drunk
All the valves come off

So I made a fool of myself
And all because of you
You have no idea how much you cost me

My sorrow is immense
Like a cave
But you won't hear me say "come back"
