I was nothing and now today
I am the guardian of her night's sleep, I love her to death
You can destroy whatever you please
She only has to open the space of her arms to rebuild everything
Rebuild everything, I love her to death

She has erased the numbers from the neighborhood clocks
She has made my life out of paper hens, bursts of laughter
She has 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 am wrong to try to hold them back
To hold them back, I love her to death

To climb into her cave hidden under the roofs
I must 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 must just 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 whatever you please
She only has to open the space of her arms to rebuild everything
To rebuild everything, I love her to death

I was nothing and now today
I am the guardian of her night's sleep, I love her to death
You can destroy whatever you please
She only has to open the space of her arms to rebuild everything
Rebuild everything, I love her to death
