Поговорим (pogovorim) means "let's talk" or "we will talk." It's the central theme and title of the song, making it highly memorable and relevant.
While seemingly simple, in the context of the song, it carries a poignant weight. The singer is talking to a recording of her lover's voice, highlighting a longing for connection and the bittersweet nature of a conversation that isn't truly reciprocal. This makes the word more profound than a casual "let's talk."
Have you ever felt lonely in the middle of the night and reached for a favorite old song? That's exactly where this song begins. The singer wakes up in an empty, quiet room and decides to break the silence by playing a cassette tape of an old lover's voice.
Even though she says their love has "melted like smoke" and he wasn't the "first or the last" love in her life, she still finds herself wanting to have a one-sided conversation with his songs. She listens to him sing, almost as if they're catching up on life, and the whole experience feels like a dream. It's a nostalgic look at a past relationship and the comfort we can find in music, even long after the romance has faded.
