There’s a danger in the curl of your lips
When you smile
And there’s a threat in the warmth
hidden in your eyes
Tell me what to do
Not to fall in love with you
I have lived alone too long
My heart dried out like the grass in the sun
I know your gaze can be the spark
That can set me ablaze and burn me out
Tell me what to do
No to fall in love with you
I spent so many empty nights
Gazing into the starry sky
Now I’m afraid that I will see
You name inscribed in my dreams
Tell me what to do
No to fall in love with you
But isn’t life just a dream
And we both don’t know what will happen
I just blow a kiss and say
“See you, my dear, in neverhappen”
I’ll teach you
And you’ll see
How not to fall in love with me
