Story Behind The Song

Victoria Linskaya of Moscow, Russia, has teamed with composer-musician Andrey Konstur to form L.A.V. Duet. The duo performs among the finest on the festival scene throughout Europe. Lyrics by Casia.

These are English lyrics I wrote for the cover song "Ramai Cu Mine" by Romanian pop star, Andra, and composed by Adrian Romcescu of Romania. "Won't You Be Mine" was showcased at the International Golden Stag Festival in Brasnov, Romania and televised on Romanian National TV (Televiziunea Romana).

Lyrics

Won't You Be Mine
(c)2011 Casia - lyrics
Victoria Linskaya - vocals
Adrian Romcescu - composer

(Verse 1)
Day by day I'm
Living in the past
And I will never forget
The first day we met
Looking in your eyes
My heart began to fly
On the wings of love
I just can't say good-bye

(Prechorus)
My life's a tragedy
Without you close to me
I'll ride far away
Through the night
To be close by your side
To feel your beating heart
To turn the darkest day into light

(Chorus)
Won't you be mine
Our love is meant to be
You mean so much to me
Travellin' a thousand miles
To share just one more smile
Won't you be mine
Love is a golden key
Unlocks eternity
I need you by my side
I need you on this ride
How can I...Say good-bye

(Verse 2)
Last night I dreamed
You were in my life
Holding me in your arms
Saying our love is strong
Then you poured away
All of my shame
Into an empty glass
And drank away my pain

(Prechorus)
My life's a tragedy
Without you close to me
I'll ride far away
Through the night
To be close by your side
To feel your beating heart
To turn the darkest day into light

(Chorus)
Won't you be mine
Our love is meant to be
You mean so much to me
Travellin' a thousand miles
To share just one more smile
Won't you be mine
Love is a golden key
Unlocks eternity
I need you by my side
I need you on this ride
How can I...Say good-bye

(Bridge)
You are always on my mind
Why can't you be mine
Why oh why oh why
Am I the other woman

(Chorus - Romanian)
(Chorus - English)
