Снежинка
Мираж Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Вновь свободный вечер мне напомнил о тебе,
И я придвигаю телефон.
Номер набирая, улыбаюсь я себе -
Знаю, мне сейчас ответит он.

Не тая секрета,
Говорю я это, это...

Я не понимаю,
Почему скучаю,
Если не звонишь ты мне.
Время забываю,
Как снежинка, таю,
Лишь с тобой наедине.

Встреча мне подарит сотни самых нежных слов,
И я позабуду обо всём.
Вечер мне откроет сотни самых сладких тайн,
Если мы останемся вдвоём.

Не тая секрета,
Повторю я это, это...

Я не понимаю,
Почему скучаю,
Если не звонишь ты мне.
Время забываю,
Как снежинка, таю,
Лишь с тобой наедине...

Не тая секрета,
Повторю я это, это...

Я не понимаю,
Почему скучаю,
Если не звонишь ты мне.
Время забываю,
Как снежинка, таю,
Лишь с тобой наедине.

Я не понимаю,
Почему скучаю,
Если не звонишь ты мне.
Время забываю,

Как снежинка, таю,
Лишь с тобой наедине.

Overall Meaning

In "Снежинка" by Мираж-2, the singer is reminiscing about their past relationship with someone and feeling the urge to reconnect with them. They refer to a free evening that reminds them of their past partner, causing them to pick up the phone and dial their number. They believe that the person will answer, and they will engage in conversation. The singer is not keeping secret their desire to talk to the person, although they do not understand why they miss that person so much. Time seems to melt away like a snowflake when they are together. They expect that meeting with their lover will result in new words and affection, and their evening will be filled with sweet secrets shared between just the two of them.

The song "Снежинка" can be interpreted as an ode to the power of love and the yearning one feels when they miss someone. The lyrics emphasize the importance of quality time with the person you love and how it can help maintain a deep connection. The snowflake is used as a metaphor for the brief time they spend together; it melts away, which signifies that they may not have as much time with each other as they would like. The song also highlights the idea of the importance of expressing one's emotions honestly and openly.
