The first night we lock together
Then sweaty we peel apart
Back to back like a long caress
The thousandth night we suffocate
Need air and need space
Our feet hold on because they're touching
Then we dodge each other 'cause we're tired of it
We dream of an unknown taste in our mouths
Nostalgia doesn't kick in anymore
It's a pill that chokes us
Then there's this woman circling around
Doing her dance that sows doubt
And she waters it with her smiles
My god how sweet the feeling is
When we sail between the shores
She presses where it hurts
Until my values collapse
Then calmly everything explodes
There'll be the before and the after
Like a dose of adrenaline
And then I come home every night
Each time a little later
Before every kiss it's the shower
To say hello and goodnight
I feel like I'm going crazy
It's arrhythmia in the myocardium
Is this really the end of our story
When we sail between the shores
Tonight you didn't sleep
I found you in the dark
Eyes swollen with contempt
With sadness and with rage
Voice broken by tears
You want to know all the details
And what she has that you don't
Like a helpless child
I try to hold you
My life has just blown to pieces
And the silence beats me up
When I no longer hear your voice
I try to gauge
When we sail between the shores
They tell me you're okay
That you've rebuilt your life
And he's nothing like me
That he'll never make you suffer
But I'm not okay
I haven't rebuilt my life
I'm just left here like an idiot
In a bad romantic comedy
Watching our old movies
Until I know by heart
The first letters we wrote each other
But when love is too strong
It doesn't want us to bail
And I find you at my door
With your two little suitcases
The first night we lock together
Then sweaty we peel apart
Back to back like a long caress
The thousandth night we suffocate
Need air and need space
And I feel like every night
You're the one who comes home a little later
