This is my least favorite life
The one where you fly and I don't
The kiss holds a million deceits
And a lifetime goes up in smoke

This is my least favorite you
Who floats far above earth and stone
The nights that I twist on the rack
Is the time that I feel most at home
We wandering in the shade
And the rustle of falling leaves
A bird on the edge of a blade
Lost now forever, my love, in a sweet memory

The station rolls away from the train
The blue pulls away
from the sky
The whisper of two broken wings
May be they're yours, maybe they're mine

This is my least favorite life
The one where I am out of my mind
The one where
you're just out of reach
The one where I stand, and you fly

I am wandering in the shade
And the rustle of fallen leaves
A bird on the edge of a blade
Lost now forever, my love, in a sweet memory

Questa è la mia vita meno preferita
Quello in cui voli e io no
Il bacio contiene un milione di inganni
E una vita va in fumo

Questo è il mio meno preferito
Chi galleggia molto al di sopra della terra e della pietra
Le notti che torcere sul rack
È il momento in cui mi sento più a casa
Vagando all'ombra
E il fruscio delle foglie che cadono
Un uccello sul bordo di una lama
Perso ora per sempre, amore mio, in un dolce ricordo

La stazione rotola via dal treno
L'azzurro si allontana
dal cielo
Il sussurro di due ali rotte
Forse sono tuoi, forse sono miei

Questa è la mia vita meno preferita
Quello in cui sono fuori di testa
Quello dove
sei appena fuori portata
Quello in cui mi trovo, e tu voli

Sto vagando all'ombra
E il fruscio delle foglie cadute
Un uccello sul bordo di una lama
Perso ora per sempre, amore mio, in un dolce ricordo
