Hope
Everybody tells me to flip a page
and to forget about you as time goes by.
It's been months since I last saw you,
and yet you are still here.
Everybody advises me to flip a page
and to get myself occupied with something else.
I live and breathe holding onto the hope
that there will be the day that you will come.
You got me spending the night in booze and hangover once again.
The sentiment cannot surprise me,
my head is bowed down, my mind feels blurry
and the laughter has been wiped out from the face.
I hang around with buddies, I exorcise yours scent from my life
into brand new kisses and perfumes.
How could we remain friends if I can't wipe out from my lips
your name through other women's names ?
Everybody asks from me not to insist
because you would stay here if you loved me ;
that I should not wait anymore since you aren't coming back
and that I'm wasting my time away.

How could we remain friends if I can't wipe out from my lips
your name through other women's names ?
...to cast your name away through other lips...
...to erase you from my mind with other women's names...
