Translation
Natural Abode
I've looked at the world through your eyes
and I've read my story again with you inside my memories.
'Cause you know that swapping skins doesn't happen to many,
to enter again under new covers, to feel refugee
as souls in bodies.
I have pursued the traits of your face as if they were two streets
on the curves of a smile, slowly and with no acceleration.
I have such a recurrent impression
that we've understood each other forever.
And I have called you home from the very first moment,
you're the roof and I'm the pavement.
The important walls are a feeling,
and your arms are the room where I fall asleep.
And if you hold me, there's no other place
I would like to go, where I'd like to live.
In this time where everything falls apart,
you're my natural abode.
Because you're the most beautiful place in the map of the world,
the one I prefer amidst others, the one where I will always return.
And I have felt you as my equal from the very first day,
and we haven't let go of our hands, not even for a second.
I have moved so many times that I can still hear the eco
of the empty room, of every dream I have left behind,
and that need of someone sleeping
next to me at night.
And I have called you home from the very first moment,
you're the roof and I'm the pavement.
The important walls are a feeling,
and your arms are the room where I fall asleep.
And if you hold me, there's no other place
I would like to go, where I'd like to live
in this time where everything falls apart.
And since you live within me,
(Since you live within me...)
I know I can feel your breathing inside,
sitting in the corners
(Sitting in the corner...)
where not even the sound of time exists.
And tell me you'll stay here,
tell me you're staying here
Because I have called you home from the very first moment,
you're the roof and I'm the pavement.
The important walls are a feeling,
and your arms are the room where I fall asleep.
And if you hold me, there's no other place
I would like to go, where I'd like to live.
In this time where everything falls apart,
you're my natural abode.
