Lyrics

Eu, Rosie, eu se falasse eu dir-te-ia
Que partout, everywhere, em toda a parte
A vida égale, idêntica, the same
É sempre um esforço inútil
Um voo cego a nada
Mas dancemos; dancemos
Já que temos
A valsa começada
E o Nada
Deve acabar-se também
Como todas as coisas
Tu pensas
Nas vantagens imensas
De um par
Que paga sem falar;
Eu, nauseado e grogue
Eu penso, vê lá bem
Em Arles e na orelha de Van Gogh…
E assim entre o que eu penso e o que tu sentes
A ponte que nos une — é estar ausentes

Lyrics translation

I, Rosie, if I spoke I'd tell you
That partout, everywhere, everywhere
Life equals, identical, the same
It is always a useless effort
A blind flight to nothing
But let's dance; let's dance
Since we have
The waltz started
And nothing
It should end too
Like all things
You think
In the immense advantages
Of a pair
Who pays without talking;
Me, nauseous and groggy
I think, check it out
In Arles and in the ear of Van Gogh…
And so between what I think and what you feel
The bridge that unites us — is to be absent
