Genius English Translations
Mahmood - Asia Occidente (English Translation)
[Verse 1]
Seeing you from the balcony hurts me, I know
But remember that
I didn’t swear I would come back
You’ve got the habit of talking badly of us, of me
About how you preferred iced Campari
At tea’s hour
Save me from the fashion’s trends that are going to change
From the bitterness of this life
From all the forgotten music
[Chorus]
You will call me, from outside my house
When everybody will be sleeping
With the desire to make the same mistake but
Now I’m nothing like you anymore
You will call me, from outside my house
I will act as if I didn’t notice
As always, as if
I were the Asia and you the Occident
I were the Asia and you the Occident
I were the Asia and you the Occident
[Verse 2]
Seeing you for an hour, hurts me I know
We dreamt of a film-like winter in a Berlin’s hotel
You think and rethink about how it would have been
You’re standing in front of the saddest scene
Of a memory that never went away
Save yourself from the people who will ask you
Some tobacco and some money, for pity
You start running, far away from here
[Chorus]
You will call me, from outside my house
When everybody will be sleeping
With the desire to make the same mistake but
Now I’m nothing like you anymore
You will call me, from outside my house
I will act as if I didn’t notice
As always, as if
I were the Asia and you the Occident
I were the Asia and you the Occident
I were the Asia and you the Occident
[Verse 3]
Today the dawn is struggling to come up
While the cigarette burns quickly in my hands
And with time opinions keep changing, panoramas
But it seems stupid telling you to stay
But it seems stupid telling you to stay
[Chorus]
You will call me, from outside my house
When everybody will be sleeping
With the desire to make the same mistake but
Now I’m nothing like you anymore
You will call me, from outside my house
I will act as if I didn’t notice
As always, as if
I were the Asia and you the Occident
I were the Asia and you the Occident
I were the Asia and you the Occident
And you the Occident
And you the Occident
