Accident [English translation]

Motionless and lost

Like a lost island,

How many days,

How many nights,

How many grey mornings,

How long

I stayed there waiting for you.

Waiting still,

Through time,

The gardens are covered in snow,

Already for the third time

Since you aren't there anymore

Since you aren't there anymore,

A child that resembles you,

A child that resembles me,

A child is playing there,

A child that resembles you

A child that resembles us,

A child by you.

My love, my baby,

You don't know him,

But I'm talking to him about you,

In my head they're swaying

Images are swaying,

In my head, there's you,

In my head, your smile,

And the image is torn,

This image, it's you,

On the highway, faster,

Towards the sun, faster,

And then everything goes too fast,

And the image is torn,

My love,

Motionless and lost

Like a lost island,

In my head they're swaying

They're swaying,

Images are swaying,

This wedding ring from you

That I'm wearing on my finger,

That I'm wearing for you,

This wedding ring, it's you,

A child that looks like you,

Looks like you,

A child that is playing there...
