BEDIAVAD
Hakartis mul einai henifa.
"Hamatos bechamesh yotzeh.
Oh shebata iti hapa'am
Oh leolam lo nitra'eh."
Az bikashti mimena, "Rega!"
Menaseh k'tzat lehit'akev
Mit'alem mikadur hara'am
haholech umitkarev.
Eich hu ala, kmo sufa
Mehadelet hi yatz'ah
Lu haya li sechel -
poel mamash miyad
Hayiti al hajumbo -
bediavad.
Chorus:
[Bediavad]
Lu rak pa'alti
[Bediavad]
Nish'art iti.
Bediavad gam kol haketa
Lo haya poked oti.
Simi friz al shana acharei chen:
Kvish hachof me'uchar baleil.
Meharadio shir boke'a,
ve'ani t'atzmi sho'el -
Eich halcha hi mib'li lashuva?
Eich natsha b'li lomar shalom?
Haramzor mitnafnef baruach
Ve'ani betoch chalom.
Eich hu ala? Te'una!
Ham'chonit nimchaka.
Hayom, haya li oto
Ve'at, ishti, leyad.
Im hayiti al hajumbo - bediavad.
Bediavad..... (as above)
Hem amru li, "Telech yemina."
Amru li, "Telech lismol."
Amru "Lech al tzanua."
Amru "Lech al gadol."
Eich hu ala! Mistaber - hagoral lo chaver.
Ma shekan batuach, beofen mechudad -
Kulam po geonim - bediavad.
[Bediavad]
Im lo hayiti
[Bediavad]
Ko cholmani
Bediavad ulai haketa
Lo haya poked oti.
[Bediavad]
Lu rak pa'alti
[Bediavad]
Nish'art iti.
Bediavad gam kawl haketa
Lo haya poked oti.
Ending: (not on dance recording)
Klum lo chalamti - Lu rak pa'alti -
Levad nish'arti - Bediavad.

IN HINDSIGHT
She waved the ticket in front of my eyes.
"The plane leaves at five.
Either you come with me this time
Or we'll never see each other again."
Then I asked her, "Wait a minute!"
Trying to stall a little
Ignoring the ball of thunder
growing closer and closer.
How it rose up! - like a storm.
Out the door she went.
If I had some sense -
had acted right away -
I would have been on the jumbo -
in hindsight.
Chorus:
[In hindsight]
If only I had acted
[In hindsight]
You would have stayed with me.
In hindsight the whole affair
Wouldn't have happened to me.
Freeze the frame to a year later:
The coastal highway late at night.
A song comes through the radio,
and I ask myself -
How did she leave without returning?
How did she abandon me without saying goodbye?
The traffic light swings in the wind
And I'm in a dream.
How did it happen? Accident!
The car was totalled.
Today, I would have had a car
And you, my wife, [would be] beside me.
If I had been on the jumbo - in hindsight.
In hindsight.... (as above)
They told me, "Go to the right"
They told me, "Go to the left"
They told me, "Be humble"
They told me, "Play it big"
How it happened! It seems clear - fate is not a friend.
What is certain here, in the sharpest way -
Everyone here is a genius - in hindsight.
[In hindsight]
If I wasn't
[In hindsight]
Day-dreaming so much
In hindsight maybe the whole affair
Wouldn't have happened to me.
[In hindsight]
If only I had acted
[In hindsight]
You would have stayed with me
In hindsight the whole affair
Wouldn't have happened to me.
Ending: (not on dance recording)
I didn't dream any of this - If only I had acted -
I remained alone - In hindsight.
