كلمات Istanbul

THE FIRST TIME I FIND YOU IN THE FOG
FROM A BOAT WHERE I WAS SMOKING ON THE DECK
SUDDENLY YOU APPEAR AND SHOW YOUR SINUOUS SHAPES
YOU LET ME IN AND I START TO TASTE YOUR AIR

WHEN I WALK YOUR STREETS I WANT TO BE SOMEONE ELSE
IT'S LIKE LIVING IN A TIME YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN
PLEASE LET ME TASTE YOUR SPRING FLOWERS
CAUSE I DON'T WANT TO STOP TO DREAM ANOTHER TIME

ISTANBUL, ISTANBUL
GOLD, STONE AND SILKS ARE WRAPPING YOU
INSTANBUL, INSTANBUL
BUT I WANT TO FIND YOUR GLOOM

A MUEZZIN LIFTS HIS PRAYER TO THE SKY
HE BREAKS THE SILENCE, TEARING LIKE A VEIL
THE SOUND SPREADS LIKE AN INCENSE FRAGRANCE
AND MY SOUL SEEMS TO LEAVE MY BODY AGAIN

ISTANBUL, ISTANBUL
GOLD, STONE AND SILKS ARE WRAPPING YOU
INSTANBUL, INSTANBUL
BUT I WANT TO FIND YOUR GLOOM

ISTANBUL, ISTANBUL
GOLD, STONE AND SILKS ARE WRAPPING YOU
INSTANBUL, INSTANBUL
BUT I WANT TO FIND YOUR GLOOM
