[English]
Selling off my stash of memories
From the most beautiful story I've ever heard in my life
Selling the script of the saddest movie
And the most beautiful I've ever seen in my life
Selling the chords, the shining melody
And the lyrics I'll compose in my life
Selling even the poster announcing
The premiere of the moment I'll live in my life
I understand you left
And now I serve my punishment
But don't ask me to want to keep living
...
Without your moon
Without your sun, without your sweet madness
I become small and fragile
The night dreams of you and mocks you
I try to hold you close and you disappear
...
Selling a worn-out camera
That captured the gaze I'll record in my life
Selling two expired tickets
That were for the second row I'll break in my life
Selling two reserved seats from centuries ago
And now I realize I sat there in my life
Selling even the poster announcing
The premiere of the moment I'll live in my life
I understand you left
And now I serve my punishment
But don't ask me to want to keep living
...
Without your moon
Without your sun, without your sweet madness
I become small and fragile
The night dreams of you and mocks you
I try to hold you
Without your moon
Without your sun, without your sweet madness
Crying like a rainy day
My soul takes off and searches for you
On a journey it will never return from
Every night I will climb up to find
...
Your moon on my rooftop
The memory of a hug
That makes me shiver
...
Without your moon
Without your sun, without your sweet madness
I become small and fragile
The night dreams of you and mocks you
I try to hold you close
Without your moon
Without your sun, without your sweet madness
Crying like a rainy day
My soul takes off and searches for you
On a journey from which it will never come back
...
