Far from you


I've forgetten sleep and its dreams

I've forgetten its nights and its days

Far from you my life is torture

Don't go far from me

I have nothing but teardrops

With my I live far from you

Desire conquered me

And the sleepless nights melted me

And no matter how much the desire keeps me up

And no matter how much the separation confuses me

No fire of love will change me

Nor will the days make me far...

From you

No sleep nor tears in my eyes

The separation is over for me

I've forgetten sleep and its dreams

I've forgetten its nights and its days

That which is between desire and desperation

That which is between fear and its illusions

I worry for you and I'm afraid you'll forget me

And the desire for you will forever wake me

Desire conquered me

And the sleepless nights melted me

And no matter how much the desire keeps me up

And no matter how much the separation confuses me

No fire of love will change me

Nor will the days make me far...

From you

Remember me in a beautiful moment

We lived in it for love

May that song remind you of me

The day we heart it dogether

Take my years

Take all of them

Except for the seconds in which I see you

Desire, ah desire and its agents

Oh how I hide it... oh how I say itI worry for you and I'm afraid you'll forget me

And the desire for you will forever wake me

Desire conquered me

And the sleepless nights melted me

And no matter how much the desire keeps me up

And no matter how much the separation confuses me

No fire of love will change me

Nor will the days make me far...

From you

I was longing for you

When there was only two steps between us

Look how it is now

Where am I my darling and where are you

What to do?

Don't tell me what to do

You are hope

Why do you deprive me of it

My eyes were making me jealous of my love

And now they cry for you because of my defeat

When are you oh light of my eye?

Oh soul of my heart, where are you?
