Lyrics & Translation
That closes the scars of the soul
I, being a disciple of the wind,
Sit and wait for calm to arrive
Am I overthinking things?
And a thousand times I fall into the same trap
Thank goodness I can now sleep soundly
I never lose all hope
Am I sometimes getting drunk
On the liquor of all liquors?
And I'm not much more than a fool
Just trying to escape from my fears
Lereleré
It's spring
That slips away from me running down the sidewalks
It's spring
That slips away from me flying wherever you want
I think it's worth it
I think it's worth it
And sometimes when I'm alone with myself
And the lights in my house go out
The universe seeks its own navel
And the eye of a hurricane that sweeps everything away
And I don't want to ask where we're going
I don't want to know where we come from
I just know I have time in my hands
If you stay a little while with me
Lereleré
It's spring
That slips away from me running down the sidewalks
It's spring
That slips away from me flying wherever you want
I think it's worth it
I think it's worth it
That sadness is worth it when your eyes
Want to cry but hide it from the corner of their gaze
All the flowers bloom after the storm
What can I do if your kisses taste like mint?
It's spring
That slips away from me running down the sidewalks
It's spring
That slips away from me flying wherever you want
I think it's worth it
I think it's worth it
