I forgot to live (song)


In the dark night I wake up

a happy dream is interrupted

my real life is all there now

made only of dreams and no longer of reality


every day I think, I forgot to live

because I fell into the trap

every day I think, I forgot to live

because my love did not steal me far away


a thought whispers to me

that I could lose myself in her forever

and I go back to dream about her again

greedy for all the time that brings me closer but distances us


every day I think, I forgot to live

because I fell into the trap

every day I think, I forgot to live

because my love did not steal me far away


a day of work still passes again

our eyes meet but they seem to say goodbye

the fear that the words I write will distance us

I start to make me sorrow, I belive more and more to lose her


every day I think, I forgot to live

because I fell into the trap

every day I think, I forgot to live

because my love did not steal me far away


only a kiss separates us from reality

as long as it's true, sweet and passionate

but this too will remain just a dream

and the uncertainty makes me cry in silence


every day I think, I forgot to live

because I fell into the trap

every day I think, I forgot to live

because my love did not steal me far away


every day I think, I forgot to live

because I fell into the trap

every day I think, I forgot to live

because my love did not steal me far away

    "Our eyes meet but they seem to say goodbye" great line that grabs attention. Solid chorus with a smooth pace.

When time dominates your life, every day you will be closer to her, but when one of the two will leave....... you will understand why you will have forgotten to live.
