Asilo [English translation]

Give me a night of asylum in your lap

Tonight, for example, let's leave the world outside

open your arms, close them with me inside

Just a few hours, and later, when at dawn I'll put on the coffee

And I will have taken this cloud towards another sky of passing clouds

If the dream loses its footing, slips,

remains hanging from a thread

I prefer a sleepless night over being on pins and needles

Give me a night of asylum

Give me a night of asylum

Give me a peaceful haven

I will give you what I have

This love that I don't explain to myself

the years go by, and it continues with its back turned to the passage of time

I want you to make small talk about the weather

while you take off your clothes as if it was something unremarkable

As if seeing you naked didn't stun me so systematically

May your skin be unknown to me

may it always leave me restive

I prefer to lick my wounds after

rather than let your love lose its edge

Give me a night of asylum
