I see the city again, festive and delirious
_____
And I hear in the music
_____
That explode and bounce
_____
And lost among these people
_____
Dizzy, helpless, I stand there
_____
When suddenly, I turn around
To throw me into his arms
_____
Crushed against each other
_____
We’re nothing but one body
And the flow, without effort
_____
Pushes us, chained to each other
_____
And leaves us both
_____
Blooming, intoxicated and happy
_____
Swept up by the crowd that surges
_____
Our two hands stay fused
_____
Our entwined bodies take flight
_____
Blooming, intoxicated and happy
_____
And the joy, splashed by his smile
_____
And springs back deep inside me
_____
But suddenly I let out a cry
_____
When the crowd comes to snatch him
_____
Moves us away from each other
But the sound of my voice
_____
Gets smothered in the laughs of the others
_____
Swept up by the crowd that rushes
_____
I'm carried far away
_____
And I clench my fists
_____
Cursing the crowd that steals from me
_____
The man it had given me
_____
And whom I never found again
