I know very well that you're leaving and not thinking of talking
And that at the least you intend to never return
But life (darling), let me bless you
Because that's life and I know you'll come back.
The moment has arrived in which you want to fly away
To compare other kisses and ways of loving
I'm human and I understand it
I won't stop your desire to try out your freedom
I know there's someone else
Who seeks your love
It's normal
It's your right
And I can't avoid it
But don't kiss him like you kiss me
Don't ever touch him like that
I'll never kiss like I kiss you
When I stumble around here
But don't look at him like you look at me
Don't caress him like that
For your own good I say this, because if you do it
...you're going to remember me
Perhaps you believe that I'm crazy for thinking like this
For letting you leave and grow apart from me
But life (darling), forget that you are mine
And your leaving is only a part of life.
