Translation
Take me or leave me
Take me or leave me,
but don't ask me to believe in you any longer.
When you're home late
you don't need to make up excuses,
for your clothes smell like timber from another hearth.
Take me or leave me.
If I'm not awake, then let me dream on,
and don't kiss my forehead:
you know I heard you coming in,
and your kiss tastes of guilt.
You admire me because I shut up and look skyward,
because you don't see me crying.
And you feel smaller and smaller by the day,
and your gaze shies away from my eyes.
Take me or leave me,
I don't spy or take freedom away from you.
But if you're abandoning the nest,
if you are going to leave me,
do so before the dawn starts coming in.
You admire me because I shut up and look skyward,
because you don't see me crying.
And you feel smaller and smaller by the day,
and your gaze shies away from my eyes.
Tale me or leave me
and, if you come back, bring truth with you.
Bring your eyes looking straight ahead,
bring my rival with you.
If she's better than me, then I will be able to cry.
