[English]
Every time I have my
Heart glued to yours, to yours
I don't know
I don't know what came over me
Thinking that one day my
Heart wouldn't be yours
But which of us stays for later?
Maybe, later?
...
We're back to square one
You avoid it and I don't answer
But feel free to be like me
I move forward and you don't come
I talk about what you don't like
...
But feel free to be like me
...
It's just you and me again
Can't you see it doesn't seduce me?
Maybe, I don't know
You might come to doubt
That I promise not to fail
Fail what was yours
But which of us stays for later?
Maybe, later?
...
We're back to square one
You avoid it and I don't answer
But feel free to be like me
I move forward and you don't come
I talk about what you don't like
But feel free to be like me
We're back to square one
You avoid it and I don't answer
But feel free to be like me
I move forward and you don't come
I talk about what you don't like
But feel free to be like me
...
