Don't let me get out of this kiss
|
Don't let me say what I say
|
The things that scare us today
|
what if they happen someday
|
Don't let me out of your arms
|
For now
|
|
What if the sword kills the pen
|
What if the god kills the man
|
And if he does it with love
|
Well then it's death from above
|
And death from above is still a death
|
|
I don't want to live without you
|
I don't want to live without you
|
I don't want to live
|
I don't want to live
|
Without you
|
|
|
For those who still can recall
|
The desperate colors of fall
|
The sweet caresses of May
|
Only in poems remain
|
No one recites them these days
|
For the shame
|
|
So what if nothing is safe
|
So what if no one is saved
|
No matter how sweet
|
No matter how brave
|
What if each to his own lonely grave
|
|
I don't want to live without you
|
I don't want to live without you
|
I don't want to live
|
I don't want to live
|
Without you
|
