Lyrics & Translation

[English]

no, no, no, no. [music] How much

could it last when we started? We feel

dawn. The hours became [music]

short enough to understand that it’s

so easy to kiss you [music] it’s so easy.

I wanted to forget you, I didn’t succeed, but

almost. What more if kissing you [music] is so

easy? I follow you on social media like a

fan, baby, and maybe we just don’t work,

[music] maybe we held hands, maybe we

left early and we want to stay

longer. [music]

What does it matter, this is all in vain. When you tell me

you love me, I cheer you on even without you saying it.

[music] How is this going to end?

What more do you want? Kissing you is so easy.

I wanted [singing] to forget you, I didn’t succeed,

but [music] almost. What more is this?

Kissing you is so easy. I follow you on

social media like fans [music] babies.

Dare, come, get close dancing, move your

waist, your body [music] doesn’t want me. I still have my doubts.
