Нас не догонят
t.A.T.u Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Только скажи,
Дальше нас двое.
Только огни
Аэродрома.
Мы убежим,
Нас не догонят.
Дальше от дома.
Ночь-проводник
Спрячь наши тени
За облака.
За облаками
Нас не найдут,
Нас не изменят.
Им не достать
Звезды руками.
Небо уронит
Ночь на ладони.
Нас не догонят,
Нас не догонят.
Небо уронит
Ночь на ладони.
Нас не догонят,
Нас не догонят.
Нас не догонят...
Мы убежим,
Все будет просто.
Ночь упадет,
Небо уронит.
И пустота на перекрестках.
И пустота нас не догонит.
Не говори, им не понятно.
Только без них,
Только не мимо.
Лучше никак,
Но не обратно.
Только не с ними.
Только не с ними.
Нас не догонят...
Небо уронит
Ночь на ладони.
Нас не догонят,
Нас не догонят.
Небо уронит
Ночь на ладони.
Нас не догонят,
Нас не догонят.
Нас не догонят...
The lyrics to t.A.T.u's song Нас не догонят (They won't catch us) narrate a story of two people who are trying to escape from something or somewhere. The song starts with the singer urging the person they are with to keep going and telling them that only the lights of an aerodrome are visible in the distance. They plan to escape and be traced no more. The lyrics proceed to speak of a conductor of the night who helps them hide their shadows behind the clouds, so they cannot be found. The clouds act as a symbolic barrier that separates them from their pursuers. The singer further emphasizes that they are unattainable and cannot be changed even if their pursuers try. They aim to reach the stars, which they believe are beyond their pursuers' grasp.
The song's title, "They won't catch us," explicitly depicts the characters' motivation to escape and not be caught. The theme of escape can also be seen in the lyrics, such as "far from them, far from home, and only two of us." The song's chorus, "the night will fall into our hands, they won't catch us," reinforces the characters' determination to escape and not be captured. The ideas of escapism, freedom, and empowerment are significant through the lyrics, which is a common theme in t.A.T.u's songs.
