Canto V

Revenge glance and the hat put on backwards
Happiness was just on the dictionary
Till I met you by a café's counter
You're so beautiful I want your calendar
Only when I date you I don't look like a earthquake victim
I used to be a burning fire in the pole in January
Then together with you we added "extra" to the ordinary
We, on an abandoned office's floor
With the supplies stolen from the supermarket
We have nothing except our enthusiasm
That microphone you gifted me
You smoke like a man and think like a criminal
You sing my songs and laugh like a child
You saved my life, I change my life for you
Cry out of joy, I signed the first agreement
After all why should we care
About those poor unhappy people on Staturday at the discotheque
It's like making a song
We perfectly slot in
Give me a reason to think about you when you're far away
Kiss me even though I'm exhausted
You love me because you know you don't understand me
I want you to tighten me like those who you cheated on me with
A reason to think about you when you're far away
Kiss me even though I'm exhausted
Hatred triumphs and love's a bait
Wiped away by the wind like Paolo and Francesca1
You know I'm there even though I'm around
The night after the concerts I think about you till morning
But during the day I live for these songs
And you seem to be searching for the point my eyes get lost in
And I'd like to take you to a tour with the seals of the private room
And a hairdresser in the staff that's come just for you
But sometimes you get dark, the darkness's queen
And you fear some fan steals a piece of me
I know it's impossible, I won't change for the world
And what I'm feeling right now is indescribable
That unreachable dream is now in the viewfinder
And maybe even you don't understend how big is my goal
Don't be foul, we can't finish
Baby it might be too late, I'm leaving for a tour in April
And you, listening to the song and liking their lyrics
If you know, answer "what would you do in my shoes, eh?"
Give me a reason to think about you when you're far away
Kiss me even though I'm exhausted
You love me because you know you don't understand me
I want you to tighten me like those who you cheated on me with
A reason to think about you when you're far away
Kiss me even though I'm exhausted
Hatred triumphs and love's just a bait
Wiped away by the wind like Paolo and Francesca1
Then spring will come
And doesn't matter with whom
Our dream will come true
Yes, but our, whose?
But it'll come, I promise
Write on the bathroom's mirror
Your number with your lipstick
But it'll come and I promise
Write on the bathroom's mirror
Your number with your lipstick
