Violent Heartbeat

If to pound speaks of a violent motion, Why then my heart moves violently If to fall is a tragic thing Then the night is a sweet tragedy If to steal is a crime Then give me my beautiful thief So I can take back the kisses he stole From me One by one by one... If to break is an event as should be avoided Then, pray, postpone the dawn Its first crack is on the horizon's edge Yet it seems the night has scarce begun
