[English]
Come in through this door now
And say that you adore me
You have half an hour
To change my life
Come on, let's go
Because what you take time for
Is what time takes away
Your scent still lingers in the house
You're still in the living room
Why does my heart race
When your smell is near
Inside a book
Within the swift night
Your scent still lingers in the house
You're still in the living room
Why does my heart race
When your smell is near
Inside a book
In the gray of the hours
Come in through this door now
And say that you adore me
You have half an hour
To change my life
Come on, let's go
Because what you take time for
Is what time takes away
Your scent still lingers in the house
You're still in the living room
Why does my heart race
When your smell is near
Inside a book
Within the swift night
Your scent still lingers in the house
You're still in the living room
Why does my heart race
When your smell is near
Inside a book
In the gray of the hours
