question 1

I love you

Ah, if we've already lost track of the time,

If together we've already thrown everything away,

Tell me now how I'm going to leave...

If, when I met you, I could dream, I made so many desmany,

I broke with the world, burned my ships,

Tell me where I can go...

(...)

If you spilled our luck on the floor,

If in the mess of your heart

My blood missed a vein and was lost...

(...)

How, if we love each other like two heathens,

Your breasts are still in my hands,

Explain to me what face I'm going out with...

No, I think you're just pretending,

I gave you my eyes to take care of,

Now tell me how to leave...
