She erased the numbers from the neighborhood clocks
She made my life into paper cranes, bursts of laughter
She built bridges between us and the sky
And we cross them every time she doesn't want to sleep
Doesn't want to sleep, I love her to death

She must have fought all the wars
To be so strong today
She must have fought all the wars
Of life, and love too

She lives her opaline dream as best she can
She dances in the middle of the forests she draws, I love her to death
She wears ribbons that she lets fly away
She often sings to me that I'm wrong to try to hold them back
To hold them back, I love her to death

To climb into her hidden cave under the roofs
I have to nail notes to my wooden clogs, I love her to death
I just have to sit, I must not speak
I must not want anything, I just have to try to belong to her
To belong to her, I love her to death

She must have fought all the wars
To be so strong today
She must have fought all the wars
Of life, and love too

I was nothing and now today
(I am the guardian of her night's sleep, I love her to death)
(You can destroy everything you please)
(She will only have to open the space of her arms to rebuild everything)
(To rebuild everything, I love her to death)
