happy together
Alexandrov Red Army Ensemble; Leningrad Cowboys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I think about you day and night
It's only right
To think about the girl you love
And hold her tight
So happy together
If I should call you up
And you say you belong to me
And ease my mind
Imagine how the world could be
So very fine
So happy together
[Chorus]
I can't see me loving nobody but you
For all my life
When you're with me
Baby the skies will be blue
For all my life
Me and you
And you and me
No matter how they tossed the dice
It had to be
The only one for me is you
And you for me
So happy together
[Chorus]
Me and you
And you and me
No matter how they tossed the dice
It had to be
The only one for me is you
And you for me
So happy together
Me and you
And you and me
No matter how they tossed the dice
It had to be
The only one for me is you
And you for me
So happy together
So happy together
How is the weather
So happy together
We're happy together
So happy together...
The lyrics to "Happy Together" by Alexandrov Red Army Ensemble and Leningrad Cowboys speak about the idea of being in love and happy with the person you care about most. The song is a reflection of the kind of happiness that comes with being with someone who completes you and makes your life better. The opening lines of the song paint a picture of a person daydreaming about their significant other, imagining a life with them where they hold each other tight and are happy together.
The lyrics continue with the idea of telephone conversations between two people in love, with the singer calling their lover and asking if they belong to them. These words evoke the idea of commitment and devotion to one another. The chorus focuses on the idea that there is no one else for the singer except for their significant other, and they can't see themselves loving anyone else for the rest of their lives. All they want is to be with the person they love, and when they're together, the skies are blue.
The repetitive me and you and you and me lines emphasize the idea of the two people being meant to be together despite the randomness of life. They were "tossed the dice" but it didn't matter because they would always have each other, and that made them happy together. The overall message of the song is that being happy together is the most essential thing in the world, and when you find the right person, you never want to let them go.

The world NEEDS more of this! Who ever would have guessed that the Red Army Choir would be performing on Senate Square in Helsinki, and that they'd be doing it as friends and honored guests. I immediately thought of this when I heard about the horrible tragedy of the Alexandrov Ensemble being lost in the plane crash a couple years back. May they rest in peace. Their spirit and their music will live on forever.

What is great about the Ensemble is that it is has always been so adaptable - and Leonid Pshenishny is a great trooper. Bravo all!

The most anti-cold war moment between two cold war eras

Unfortunately this comment was quite prophetic.

@Pavel Němec This isn't a cold war anymore, it's boiling. I hope someone will turn the heater off.
