HARIS ALEXIOU MINORAKI LYRICS

(English Translation)

THAT'S WHERE SONGS COME FROM

I've placed you gently, secretly
inside a sad song
music will work its miracles again
because I want you.

What you hear is the sound of my soul
hidden between the lines I mislead you
because I want you.

That's where songs come from
when pain becomes your friend
and gets so close to you,
touches your hair
that's how you gain strength
to make a sacred song.

My song is bitter, my song is sweet
A caryatid I can't be
for you to want me.

An old photograph of mine you still keep
I don't look like that anymore and
you don't love me.
Ah.. you don't love me.

For thousands of nights
and even more I love you
with rage, maddening excitement
and complaint
I count the ways I want you.

Into this same sad song
I've also locked myself
a tiny spot in a tiny world
because I want you.
