A Window to the Mediterranean Sea

Lyrics: Yaakov Gil'ad
Melody: Yehuda Poliker
 
I promised to write to you when I departed
Yet I haven't corresponded with you for a while now
Right now I am missing you terribly
It's a shame, a shame that you're not here.
 
As soon as I arrived in Jaffa
Hopes were borne out of frustration
I found a room and a half for myself
On the rooftops of an abandoned house.
 
There is a Murphy bed in here,
If the three of us want to sleep.
You, me and the child
By a window to the Mediterranean sea.
 
...And perhaps, far away, there lies a chance of 1 out of a million
...And perhaps, far away, some sort of happiness is sneaking into the window.
 
The year is 1950, end of December
Outside there is a war of spirits
The snow came here suddenly
White reminds me of lost things.
 
The wound is still open,
If only you were with me right now
I would sure be telling you
What a letter cannot simply tell.
 
Here, if you want you can come home,
And myself, o, you'll have plenty of it
Laughter of children in the evenings
By a window to the Mediterranean sea.
 
...And perhaps, far away, there lies a chance of 1 out of a million
...And perhaps, far away, some sort of happiness is sneaking into the window.
