Novice you are, love is older than you
Novice you are, your shoulders yet not broad
Novice you are, you outgrew those years
Novice you were, more than you are now
We learned love through movies and trailers
We were the heartbroken youth on the posters
We were lead actors in the fixed scripts
Such novices were we
Yet, love is a fairy tale to be lived once upon a time
More than a promise to be kept
Don't ever try to explain love, breathe it
Who knows, promises could be forgotten, or the life itself
Novice you are, love is older than you
Novice you are, don't go sour and live your life
Neither strength nor courage is enough
You have to understand its temperament
It will make itself familiar by time,
Will raise you with many occasions,
Will vanish without a trace, from time to time
Then will show its whereabouts
And finally it will ask, "do you see now?"
We always listened to love in tragic songs
Always listened to love through stories of those defeated
You ask all the time: "why?"
Yet, love is a fairy tale to be lived once upon a time
More than a promise to be kept
Don't ever try to explain love, breathe it
Who knows, promises could be forgotten, or the life itself
Novice you are, love is older than you
Novice you are, don't go sour and live your life
Neither strength nor courage is enough
You have to understand its temperament
You are still a novice
It will make itself familiar by time,
Will raise you with many occasions,
Will vanish without a trace, from time to time
Then will show its whereabouts
And finally it will ask, "do you see now?"
