transpolia (fragments re-set)

A life ⋮ forever here.

A life without surprises.
Just the same old (dull) same old…
A life that’s like a film
you’ve seen before
(no twists, no turns).
Like a week that never ends,
a week without weekends…

But my darling love when I am with you,
I’m up high in seventh heaven,
somewhere in among the stars,
nestled tightly in your arms
like a sparrow in its nest,
and well there’s nothing more I need,
no, there’s nothing more I want –
oh God, how hard I love you! –
and as my eyelids flicker closed
I pray that I can stay
forever here…

Lyrics from the song “High in Seventh Heaven”
by Déspina Vandí (2004)

Μια ζωή δίχως εκπλήξεις,
βαρετή μ’ επαναλήψεις.
Μια ζωή ταινία που έχεις δει
δίχως ανατροπές.
Βδομάδα δίχως Σάββατα και Κυριακές.

Μα όταν ειμ’ αγάπη μου μαζί σου
στην αυλή του παραδείσου,
κάπου ανάμεσα στ’ αστέρια
στη φωλιά απ’ τα δυο σου χέρια
και κουρνιάζω σαν σπουργίτι,
τίποτ’ άλλο δε μου λείπει,
τίποτ’ άλλο δε ζητάω,
Θέε μου πόσο σ’ αγαπάω
και τα βλέφαρά μου κλείνω
και προσεύχομαι να μείνω
για πάντα εδώ…

Music and lyrics by Phoebus.
