This is a transcript of the vocal track followed by its English translation.

Imi amintesc noptile pe dig, ploile petrecute sub acoperisul benzinariei, mingea de fotbal, mirosul aerului in preajma brutariei toamna, tigarile furate de la parinti, centrala din parcare. Imi amintesc dupa-amiezile in Cub.a, caldura si magazinul lui Garcea. Imi amintesc un oras intreg zimbind non-stop timp de 3 ani. Imi amintesc luneta lui Marin si pe Deme recuperandu-ma din Valcea cu masina plina de femei. Imi amintesc pasarela din Stefanesti, santierul din Centru, casa de langa Cimitirul Evreiesc. Imi amintrsc Revelionul de la West Gate, piscina rece din Ayia Napa. Calea Lactee.

I remember the nights on the pier, the times I spent under the roof of the gas station waiting for the rain to stop, the football, how the air smelled around the bakery in the fall, the cigarettes I stole from my parents, the power station parking lot. I remember the afternoons in Cub.a, the heat, and Garcea’s shop. I remember Marin’s sniper scope, and Deme coming to pick me up from Valcea with a car full of women. I remember the railway bridge in Stefanesti, the construction site downtown, the house next to the Jewish Graveyard. I remember New Year’s Eve at West Gate, that cold pool in Ayia Napa. The Milkyway.
