lyrics
Love ‘til Death
Love ‘til death x2
Soon he’ll only have his eyes to cry/ When he holds me, my breath is taken away
Love ‘til death x2
He says he’s not able to forget me
Love ‘til death x2
soon he ‘ll only have his eyes to cry
Love ‘til death x4
When he holds me, my breath is taken away
Love ‘til death x2
He says he’s not able to forget me
Love ‘til death x2
soon I’ll only have my eyes to cry
I Ask For Forgiveness
I ask for forgiveness, every day I ask for forgiveness,
To you, I ask for forgiveness/ To my father, I ask for forgiveness / To my mum, I ask for forgiveness, To my brother, I ask for forgiveness / To my husband, I ask for forgiveness / To my country, I ask for forgiveness
But why am I asking for forgiveness? What have I done? Why should I ask for forgiveness? What have I done? Why would I ask for forgiveness? What have I done?
But me, I…me, I…me I…I'm boiling (mumbled)
They told me to shut up / They told me: don't speak loudly/ They told me to shut up
They told not to laugh/ They told me not to look / They told me to hide.
But me, I…me, I…me I…me I'm dying (mumbled)
Every day I ask for forgiveness / To my father, I ask for forgiveness / To my mother, I ask for forgiveness / To my brother, I ask for forgiveness / To my husband, I ask for forgiveness/ To my country, I ask for forgiveness
But why am I asking for forgiveness? Why am I asking for forgiveness?
They told me to shut up / They told me to hide / They told me to lower my eyes
They told me to shut up / They told me to hide / They told me: “Lower your eyes!” x2
Why am I asking for forgiveness? X2/ What have I done?
Fragile
Why should I be fragile? Why should I be docile? Why should I be slender?
Why should I be frivolous? Why should I be easy? Why should I be useful ?
Why should I be docile? Why should I be fragile? Why should I be fertile?
Why should I be frivolous? Why should I be easy? Why should I be docile?
