I've been making love to you for fifteen years
You still don't look at me
_____
I circle circle circle around you
_____
I speak the same language though
_____
I defend it with all I've got
_____
From Tokyo to Portland via Barcelona
_____
I make an effort, I explain it well
I'm probably out of place
_____
When I go abroad I explain nothing
_____
I don't need to explain myself
_____
Maybe that's the truth
_____
You ask yourself a lot of questions
_____
Or maybe, maybe not enough
_____
And I'm the one who's really dumb
_____
We met on a misunderstanding
_____
Apparently, it lasts three years
_____
Afterward, afterward it's gone
_____
We get used to it, we like each other, but it's not
_____
You feel like I've changed
_____
I feel like you're not twenty anymore
_____
I write my story elsewhere
_____
To have things to tell you
_____
I never told you, by the way
_____
How much, how much I admire you
_____
You wrap yourself in what you know
_____
Like a survival blanket
_____
It's shiny, you like it
_____
But why, why do you follow it
_____
I've explored the continents
The statue between my teeth
_____
I didn't, I didn't steal it
_____
Ask my faithful lovers
_____
How good it is to meet again
_____
I know I'm not the beauty
_____
But I am sincerity
