Odessa - Rome

Ah, tis but a dainty flower I bring to you

Yes, tis but a violet glistening with dew

So in our heart our love for you lies unrevealed

A stale romance and the solitude we share

Have dragged you to the beach to find me there

Every promise undone glittering in the sun

In the golden sway of violence

That morning you came and you stood in disbelief

In longing and shame

The presentiment of grief

To forgive and to define this treachery of mine

You took off your clothes in silence

This sweet blue secrecy, the demands of destiny

Now who will serve your pleasure, who will serve your greed?

Now that the men you treasured belong to the fleet

And watch the morrows tide, that frail and beautiful bride

What a very strange season this is

From the tender axe of springtime, defying the snows

To the streaming summers, hatchet she rose

Now all covered with lime under an indifferent sky

We smother everything in kisses

Will we know eternity?

Will we forge a way to see?

Will we know eternity?

Will we forge a way to see?

Porque te debo, cada ataque aprendido, cada batalla

Porque te debo, cada ataque aprendido, que en la lucha te di

Who will serve your pleasure, who will serve your greed?

Now that the men you treasured belong to the fleet

And watch the morrows tide, that frail and beautiful bride

What a very strange season this is

From the tender axe of springtime, defying the snows

To the streaming summers, hatchet she rose

Now all covered with lime under an indifferent sky

We smother everything in kisses

Oh, we smother everything in kisses

(Porque te debo, cada ataque aprendido, cada batalla)

Oh, we smother everything in kisses

(Porque te debo, cada ataque aprendido, que en la lucha te di)
