[English]
Where do those we love go
When they suddenly disappear?
Someone who leaves us
Someone who hurts you,
When they go too far from us
They are within ourselves
Within our memories
Not a word too many, just the act that it takes
To hold on to them one last time
No one ends up in oblivion if someone is still waiting here
A friend is always missed, we always think of their return
One day all hopes are allowed, let the past come back to life
The present, the absent reunited
One day it will be good to fall asleep
And stop thinking of the worst
We also live on memories
What do those who stay do
When their pain is stronger than anything
When they hate themselves for staying
Those who must see it through to the end
No one ends up in oblivion if someone is still waiting here
A friend is always missed, we always think of their return
One day all hopes are allowed, let the past come back to life
The present, the absent reunited
One day it will be good to fall asleep
And stop thinking of the worst
We also live on memories
One day all hopes are allowed, let the past come back to life
The present, the absent reunited
One day it will be good to fall asleep
And stop thinking of the worst, we also live on memories
One day all hopes are allowed, let the past come back to life
The present, the absent reunited
One day it will be good to fall asleep
And stop thinking of the worst, we also live on memories
