Thank you, my love—
for having taken on
the whole world with me,
for having sought out
a new life with me,
for having made a mistake
and then paying for it so much
with me.
Thank you, because I know
that this love
could never end.
Even if the world
collapses around us,
I will not cry—
somehow I will manage
to tell you goodbye.
But to tell you goodbye is just not possible,
to think of you without smiling,
not to be there in your eyes.
But no—I am not saying goodbye
because you live in me.
At this point, we are like
the earth and the tree,
the light and the sun—
I know nothing else—
I know nothing more. I do not know.
But to tell you goodbye is just not possible,
to think of you without smiling,
not to be there in your eyes.
But no—I am not saying goodbye
because you live in me.
At this point, we are like
the earth and the tree,
the light and the sun—
I know nothing more.
Thank you, my love,
from this night forward,
I will come home alone—
from your glass,
I will drink as in the past—
over your pillow
my hand will roam
and you will be there.
