Stroll

I want you to take me out tonight,
someone built this city just for us.
In the alleys, let’s look at each other for the first time,
at the traffic lights I’ll teach you how to kiss.
 
Tell me about your past affairs,
about your fears, about the faults you bear.
Tell me why it is that I like you,
I’ll tell you why you want me.
 
I want you to take me out tonight,
to show me the hideouts of the thieves.
Let’s slip inside a car left open,
To peer through the windows of the houses.
 
Tell me why you are not someone else,
tell me why you’re not somewhere far.
Whatever you say will stay, in any case,
between us and the moon above.
 
I want you to take me out tonight,
Athens lies empty, only for us.
By morning you may want to marry me,
by morning you may not love me at all.
 
Don’t tell me, I don’t even want to know
what our stars have written for us.
Tell time itself, tell this old man,
that the day has broken and you’re kissing me.
