Refrain:
The leaves are like storks.
I don’t believe them, no.
I’m begging you for an answer so much.
Near you. But you’re not near me.
I’m living in my thoughts, I can’t bear this anymore.
You’ll ask where I am now, you’ll ask for one last time.
I’ll keep silent, because ‘we’ don’t exist anymore¹.
First verse:
Could it be that I’ve hurt you somehow?
You stopped giving me your love; I was crazy for you.
Writing poems every time, but the words are in vain.
How do I forget you, rainy August?
How so, why, it’s hard to answer.
As if we were taken with the wind into outer space.
And we can’t find our desolate island anymore
Here’s how it is, and we are in lies,
The abyss between us.
Refrain:
The leaves are like storks.
I don’t believe them, no.
I’m begging you for an answer so much.
Near you. But you’re not near me.
I’m living in my thoughts, I can’t bear this anymore.
You’ll ask where I am now, you’ll ask for one last time.
I’ll keep silent, because ‘we’ don’t exist anymore.
Second verse:
You didn’t let me drown in your sinful world.
Could it be that the happiness divided us?
Everything was gone in a moment, when I haven’t decided
To be alone and free, or to be happy.
I tried to forget everything, all our moments,
To live happier that before, but what will be later?
I can’t breathe in this atmosphere again,
The love is making my head spin, like carrousels.
Refrain (twice):
The leaves are like storks.
I don’t believe them, no.
I’m begging you for an answer so much.
Near you. But you’re not near me.
I’m living in my thoughts, I can’t bear this anymore.
You’ll ask where I am now, you’ll ask for one last time.
I’ll keep silent, because ‘we’ don’t exist anymore.
