Things You Don't See Anymore Part 3

So back in the Soviet Union in the 70's there was Krokdil Gena and Cheburashka. The cartoons werent that well animated, but the lyrics to the songs were profound. We were driving the back roads on a Kazakh oil field around 2010 on a dreary day and my buddy and I started singing this and soon the whole transport was singing along.



And slowly do the minutes tick away
Don’t you expect to find them again
Even if giving up the past is a bit sad
Everything that’s best still lies ahead
Just like a carpet, oh a carpet
A long road unfolds ahead
And it pushes up against the sky
Everyone, everyone believes in the best
Rolling & streaming ahead, a blue wagon
Unintentionally, we might have hurt someone
The calendar will forget that day
To all new escapades we are rushing my friends
Hey driver, add some extra speed

The blue wagon rolls and streams ahead
Rushing engine picking up some speed
Why, oh why, does this day have to end?
Wish it would last a whole year
