Les Amoureux - Salò Tomoe

Dawn inundating the streets, you and I
never cease to adore each other, you and I
running through dead-end streets, you and I
emulating the purest angels, you and I
have seen the purpose of this century, you and I
have been the purpose of this century, you and I
ignoring the streetcar of hours, you and I
watching the world collapse, feeling no burden, you and I
sharing with the stag and the beggar, you and I
a table where no one else fits, you and I
youth and eternity, unquenchable, you and I
we renounce the most human death, you and I,
only you and I
only you and I
only you and I
only you and I.
