Amorous

My heart

I don't know why

Beats happily when it sees you

And my eyes keep smiling

And, by the streets, following you

But even so, you flee from me

Oh! If you only knew

How amorous I am

And how I want you so much

And how honnest is my love

I know you would no longer flee from me

Come, come, come, come

Come to feel the heat

Of my lips

Searching for yours

Come to kill this passion

That devours my heart

And only this way, then

I'll be happy, really happy

Thanks! ❤
