Let's keep our eyes wide open
On this point, over here, sleep will have to wait
Just like stone statues
Let's hold each other, for the sun is here
Let's make love, and then war
Between two corridas
Sleep will have to wait
Breathe in the passing breeze
Which comes, and then goes
For the sun is here
When everything goes wrong
And nobody agrees
Let's bet that sleep
Will wait for us some more
The river is rising
The archipelago, bared to death
I fear that sleep
Won't be able to wait anymore
To wait anymore
Let's keep our eyes wide open
And let's clean the spit-starred night
Far away, over there, it's war
Over here the sink is leaking, but the sun is here
Let's keep our eyes wide open
And let's swallow the rain
The sun is gone
Let's travel all around the world
For the world bored us
The sun is here
When everything goes wrong
And nobody agrees
Let's bet that sleep
Will wait for us some more
The river is rising
The archipelago, bared to death
I fear that sleep
Won't be able to wait anymore
To wait anymore
