I like for you to be still,it is as though you were absent |
| [00:06.48] |
And you hear me from far away,and my voice does not touch you. |
| [00:11.33] |
It seems as though your eyes had flown away |
| [00:13.96] |
And it seems that a kiss had sealed your mouth. |
| [00:18.06] |
As all things are filled with my soul |
| [00:20.28] |
You emerge from the things, filled my soul. |
| [00:24.78] |
You are like my soul, a butterfly of dream, and you are like the word Melancholy. |
| [00:35.25] |
I like for you to be still,and you seem far away. |
| [00:40.57] |
It sounds as though you were lamenting, a butterfly cooing like a dove. |
| [00:46.48] |
And you hear me from far away and my voice does not touch you |
| [00:51.74] |
Let me come to be still in your silence. |
| [00:55.99] |
And let me talk to you with your silence |
| [00:58.87] |
That is bright as a lamp,simple as a ring. |
| [01:05.39] |
You are like the night, with its stillness and constellations. |
| [01:10.19] |
Your silence is that of a star, as remote and candid. |
| [01:16.20] |
I like for you to be still, it is as though you were absent |
| [01:20.81] |
Distant and full of sorrow as though you had died. |
| [01:25.15] |
One word then,one smile,is enough. |
| [01:28.99] |
And I am happy, happy that it's not true. |
