Yih'yu l'ratzon imrei fi v'hegyon libi l'fanecha, A-do-nai tzuri
Yih'yu l'ratzon imrei fi v'hegyon libi l'fanecha, A-do-nai tzuri*
I will crush my fantasy
Bring me olive oil crushed for his majesty
To shine a warmth into eternity, this is an eternal decree
We'll dance like flames for there's no gravity
For now I'm just a candle trying to stay lit in this windy night
Got to crush my fantasies of how this life is supposed to be
Bring my broken heart to an invisible king with a hope one day you might answer me, so I pray don't you abandon me
Your silence kills me
I wouldn't have it any other way
Is it wrong to think you might speak to me?
You might speak, would it be words and what would you say?
It's so heavy a heavy price to pay
Your silence
