Verse

Kruhy pod očima a těžká víčka.

Dark circles and heavy eyelids.

V košíku mléko a jedna svíčka.

Milk and one candle in the basket.

Děti už spí doma u babičky.

The kids are sleeping at grandma's.

My táhneme nohy, pálí nás paty.

We drag our feet, our heels burn.

Chorus

Tančíme v uličce mezi regály.

Dancing in the aisle between shelves.

Světla nad námi tiše zazářila.

Lights above us shone softly.

Jen ty a já, chvíle klidu.

Just you and me, moment of peace.

Tančíme v uličce, únava mizí.

Dancing in the aisle, tiredness disappears.

Verse

Rádio hraje starý známý hit.

The radio plays an old familiar hit.

Místo nákupu chceme jenom žít.

Instead of shopping we just want to live.

Otočka u mražených hrášků a ryb.

A turn by frozen peas and fish.

Takhle je nám spolu mnohem líp.

We feel much better this way.

Chorus

Tančíme v uličce mezi regály.

Dancing in the aisle between shelves.

Světla nad námi tiše zazářila.

Lights above us shone softly.

Jen ty a já, chvíle klidu.

Just you and me, moment of peace.

Tančíme v uličce, únava mizí.

Dancing in the aisle, tiredness disappears.

Bridge

Zapomeň na pleny a ranní pláč.

Forget the diapers and morning cries.

Dneska je parket náš, slyšíš ten tón?

Today the floor is ours, hear the tone?

Chorus

Tančíme v uličce mezi regály.

Dancing in the aisle between shelves.

Světla nad námi tiše zazářila.

Lights above us shone softly.

Jen ty a já, chvíle klidu.

Just you and me, moment of peace.

Tančíme v uličce, únava mizí.

Dancing in the aisle, tiredness disappears.
