Sembravi [English translation]

If I had known that

you never had any fondness for me,

I would have spent more time with your dog.

If I had known that

we were going to forget each other so easily,

I would have looked at you with less attention.

You seemed strong... more than me.

You seemed sure, more than me.

You seemed convinced like me.

You seemed happy next to me.

If I had understood that

my strength would become your misfortune,

we wouldn't have been allies only in defeat.

And I would have wanted

you to choose me not for how I am

but in spite of how I am.

You seemed strong... more than me.

You seemed sure, more than me.

You seemed convinced like me.

You seemed happy next to me.

You seemed strong... more than me.

You seemed sure, more than me.

You seemed convinced like me.

You seemed happy next to me.
