Let the news channels be ruined
With how much I hate television
Let smiles become outdated
And all sunsets extinguish
Let doctrines and duties be suppressed
Let the action movies end
Let the pleasures in the world be destroyed
And let one last song be written today
Chorus 1
But may you remain with me
And may your embrace remain with me
And the kiss that you invent every day
And may I remain here after sunset
Forever your melancholy
Because I already know, yes, that I depend on you
And if you remain with me
Life remains with me
Verse 2
Let all the neighbors disappear
And consume the leftovers of my innocence
Let friends go one by one
And shoot down my piece of conscience
Let words be consumed on lips
Let them contaminate all the water on the planet
Or may philanthropists and wise men resign
And may even the last poet die today
Chorus 2
But may you remain with me
And may your embrace remain with me
And the kiss that you invent every day
And may I remain here after sunset
Forever your melancholy
Because I already know, yes, that I depend on you
And if you remain with me
Life remains with me
Chorus 3
But may you remain with me
And may your embrace remain with me
And the kiss that you invent every day
And may I remain here after sunset
Forever your melancholy
Because I already know, yes, that I depend on you
And if you remain with me
Life remains with me
