Cry Baby
Cry baby cry
On my mind
Our paper airplane
Can’t fly
Cry baby cry
So love is blind
Our paper airplane
Can’t fly
Там где / There where
Нас могли бы отыскать / They could search for us
По следам на песке / Following the footsteps in the sand
Но нам с тобой летать / But you and me have to fly
Небо Праги / Prague sky
Делить на два / Split it into two
Но как же мало я тебя знала / But how little I knew you
И как себе врала / And how I lied to myself
Cry baby cry
On my mind
Our paper airplane
Can’t fly
Cry baby cry
So love is blind
Our paper airplane
Can’t fly
Мишени ночного сити / Targets of the night city
Теряются на руфтопах / Get lost on rooftops
А нас все еще манит солнечный Питер / But we are still beckoned by sunny St. Petersburg
Сапсаном и автостопом / With the Sapsan* and an automatic break
Cry baby cry
On my mind
Our paper airplane
Can’t fly
Cry baby cry
So love is blind
Our paper airplane
Can’t fly
*Sapsan is a Russian electric train
t.A.T.u’s Lena Katina Releases Dual Language Single Cry Baby
Three years after her last English release, Lena Katina is back with a dual language single ‘Cry Baby’. The song which is sang in both Russian and English is noticeably different from her earlier work with a mature and relaxed sound.
It has been three years since former t.A.T.u member Lena Katina released a song in English. She had been teasing about her new single Cry Baby for some time and unexpectedly it was not an English track but rather a dual language track. The song starts off in English with the chorus “Cry baby cry, on my mind, our paper airplane, can’t fly” before shifting into the Russian verses where Katina describes how she had lied to herself and how little she knew of her lover.

Lena Katina – “Cry Baby”
Russia’s Lena Katina believes “our autumn should be warmed with good music”, and she hopes to do so with her new single “Cry Baby”. It’s a bilingual track, with the chorus in English and the verses in Russian. The Eurovision 2003 contestant and former t.A.T.u member discusses how, much like aeroplanes, love needs to be built out of sturdy materials: “Cry baby, cry / So love is blind / A paper aeroplane can’t fly”. Sonically, the song is a slow burner and steadily flows along with a mixture of violin and percussion instrumentation.
Alex Markin commented on Lena Katin’as Official VK page with a comparison between one of the scenes in the “Cry Baby” video and the album artwork to Roisin Murphy’s – “If We’re In Love” single.
