Lucienne Delyle- Mon amant de saint Jean

(I know, the video sucks but the song's absolutely marvellous)

Libiamo ne' lieti calici, che la bellezza infiora; e la fuggevol ora s' inebrii a volutta

'' Well, you know.. the past few days,

I have been wanting to cry.

..Ι tried it actually, plenty of times,

but nope, not even a single tear.

No, no, I'm terribly fine, it's nothing, really

...but..

I can still sense the flood inside me,

you know... it just needs to burst out.

It's time it burst out.

I have been counting the letters, the dreams,

the commas, everything, except

the clouds I set on your shade of colours,

(they have been counting me)

everything, oh they all clench my body, and it hurts.

They shout at me, shouting that time, time, time

passes by, it has passed away so long ago

without me

and still I am lost in my little, tiny world of mirrors

and fantasy.

I am scared and

my body hurts, my face is swollen.

And I needed to cry,

but nope, no

no sad song could make me cry.

Close your eyes,

I'm climbing up the sky to pick us some flowers,

I'll be back by the time you wake up,

by the time everything ends.

I' ll be back before you notice I'm gone.

Have you ever noticed

I'm gone?''

(''PS: I will be chasing the sound of the bicylce bells.

Should you know how to capture the sounds,

do tell me.

Place your note on my fingers,

I' ll pretend that I'm sleeping.'')
