Lyrics & Translation
Brings you the desire to live more
And the promise that the chance is over
It's nonsense, it's better to leave it behind
I'm tired of suffering
I want to dance, feel the warmth
And just look at the universe around you
Shining with life, smiling for no reason
Just vibrating love and peace
I feel the night, I think of you
I remember how good it is to love
When you left, I cried
I cried, I cried
Now that you have returned, I smile
I smile, I am king
When you left, I cried...
When you left, I cried
I cried, I cried
Now that you have returned, I smile
I smile, I am king
When you left, I cried
I cried, I cried
Now that you have returned, I smile
I smile, I am king
When the hope of a night of love
Brings you the desire to live more
And the promise that the chance is over
It's nonsense, it's better to leave it behind
I'm tired of suffering
I want to dance, feel the warmth
And just look at the universe around you
Shining with life, smiling for no reason
Just vibrating love and peace
I feel the night, I think of you
I remember how good it is to love
When you left, I cried
I cried, I cried
Now that you have returned, I smile
I smile, I am king
When you left, I cried
I cried, I cried
Now that you have returned, I smile
I smile, I am king
