The bed without you
A square without people
A destitute sheikh
A stew without salt
Life without you
A guitar without strings
A lighter without flint
A flight under the sea

There's no money in this world to buy you
And there are no words in the world to tell you
And I know there's more than one out there who will envy you
But they tried to match you and it ended up as a joke
The shine in your eyes is like a diamond
And not even with weight on top can it be destroyed
A work of art cannot be copied
And if they want to steal you, they'll have to beat you

I've wanted to please you for a long time
And you'll see it's not easy, woman
Give me your word that you're going to stay
And you'll do it when I leave too
If I knew where in the world you are
I would move to see you again
You forgot about me to take flight
There's no one to stop those feet

You're the window to the world where I looked
I thought about the future and you painted it in color
All my mornings, all my craziness
Now so distant, so full of doubts
These butterflies hardly fly anymore
They're trapped, wrapped in fabric
Life without you is not how I would want it
Life without you is not how I would want it

Maybe the road will separate us
Right now I don't even know where you are
Why pretend? Why think
That I'll be fine without seeing you?
Tell me that everything is a lie
and when I wake up it's not reality
Tell me, let's see, what to do to see you

The bed without you
A square without people
A destitute sheikh
A stew without salt
Life without you
A guitar without strings
A lighter without flint
A flight under the sea
