Mai dire mai [English translation]

Look, so many bruises…

Look, so many edges…

Between us.

So many dreams and moments of excitement…

Have you counted the perplexities?

And the things given in half remain:

Feelings that will no longer sleep,

Will go away by the sentences and words never given…

I don’t know how to be without you.

I don’t know how to be without love.

What alternative is there

In order to make it not so painful?

Only you can make sense of your own feelings.

I only know that in love, you can never say never…

Because to be without you

Is like extinguishing my heart

In order to make room for the “if”s

In a game of words.

Only you can make sense of your own feelings.

I only know that in love, you can never say

never…ever…ever

I give a glance at my past

And I see you there, already impaled.

You left me in disbelief,

Then told me: “One day you’ll understand.”

I don’t know how much I hated you. I really don’t know.

I don’t think that it was difficult for you.

I understood that you loved me

More than I loved you…

I don’t know how to be without you.

I don’t know how to be in love.

What alternative is there

In order to make it not so painful?

Only you can make sense of your own feelings.

I only know that in love, you can never say never…

Because to be without you

Is like extinguishing my heart

In order to make room for the “if”s

In a game of words.

Only you can make sense of your own feelings.

I only know that in love, you can never say

never…ever…ever

It was necessary to understand eventually -

To feel a little more alone,

Without wings, without flights.

But, the desire that I have to live is

A story without limits

Without limits…
