[English]
Wish to hold each other then
White wine, flowers, and old songs
And we used to laugh at ourselves
What a mess we made
Damned spring
What’s left of an erotic dream if
When I wake up, he's a poet
If empty-handed, I have nothing of you
I don't know how to do it anymore
As if it weren’t love
If by mistake
I close my eyes and think of you
If to fall in love again
You’ll come back, damned spring
What a mess, if
To fall in love, all it takes is an hour
Why the hurry?
Damned spring
Why the haste?
If it only hurts me
...
What remains inside me
Of touches that don’t touch the heart
Stars, there’s only one
That can give me
The measure of love
If by mistake
I close my eyes and think of you
If to fall in love again
You’ll come back, damned spring
What does it matter if
To fall in love, all it takes is an hour
Why the hurry?
Damned spring
Why the haste?
Damned like you
...
Let me do it
As if it weren’t love
But by mistake
I close my eyes and think of you
What does it matter if
To fall in love, all it takes is an hour
Why the hurry?
Damned spring
Why the haste?
We both know it, you and I
...
Damned spring
...
