Lyrics & Translation
With our eyes closed from talking
Free and still relaxed
And we believe, baptized on still warm paths
The night seems superior
Free and yet tense
Free and still tense
I don't want another centimeter between us
A spot without a contour
I want a new beginning with more depth, more background
An end without censorship
And we lie, not far from our lives
I can read in your eyes
Free and still relaxed
And we love, heading toward the bright day
Open and shy
Free and yet tense
So free and still relaxed
I don't want another centimeter between us
A spot without a contour
I want a new beginning with more depth, more background
An end without censorship
I'd like to do more with you
So much more
To do more with you
I'd like to do more with you
So much more
To do more with you
I don't want another centimeter between us
A spot without a contour
I want a new beginning with more depth, more background
An end without censorship
I don't want another centimeter between us
A spot without a contour
I want a new beginning with more depth, more background
An end without censorship
I don't want another centimeter between us
A spot without a contour
I want a new beginning with more depth, more background
An end without censorship
