[English]
You were a passing bird
And I don't know why
I kept getting more used to you every day
We both invented the adventure of love
You filled my life, then I saw you leave
Without saying goodbye, I saw you go
I want to find my way in your open hands
And that you feel like a woman only with me
Today I want you, today I want you
I want to quench the thirst in your lips for my soul
And discover love together every morning
Today I want you, today I want you
...
Nothing is sadder
Than silence and pain
Nothing is more bitter than knowing I lost you
Tonight I search in the night for the sound of your voice
And where you hide to fill me with myself
Fill myself with you, fill myself with you
I want to find my way in your open hands
And that you feel like a woman only with me
Today I want you, today I want you
I want to quench the thirst in your lips for my soul
And discover love together every morning
Today I want you, today I want you
...
Today I want you, today I want you
I want to quench the thirst in your lips, the thirst of my soul
And discover love together every morning
...
Today I want you, today I want you
...
