לה בוהם [La Bohème] [English translation]

You left me in love and unsure

Suspended above raging waters,

The love that crashed against me in anger

Locked away once more, never to return

It's to love you as if we never

Fell apart or let go of each others' hands,

Your love for me flowed like a stream

My love for you belonged to me

In my dreams I long for you

So I go to my parents to get away

And I thought you might want to know

They still ask how you are, what you're up to these days

My love is always a little crazy

Wanting to start fights when all around are asleep

To choose the good in this world, just like we used to

Where did we escape to in our youth?

Time passes and heightens the longing

Your body stretches from the pillow to the floor

In your stories good would always overcome

In my confessions I would meet you halfway

Suddenly thinking about what I have to offer

In no rush to believe the victory

Don't try and repeat that we never were

Because we were and how

In my dreams I long for you

So I go to my parents to get away

And I thought you might want to know

That I've been dreaming of you for three years

My love is always a little crazy

Wanting to start fights when all around are asleep

And softly singing "La Bohème" in the middle of the night

What did we listen to in our youth?

And the whole city might already live on wings

People flying into the buildings

And I thought you might want to get away

To stroke a tiger somewhere, for a spiritual moment

And I still love you even though

You're practicing being in love and not with me

Writing you a song from the heart of the city, ohh for now

May you never know such solitude in all your life
