İki Yabancı Lyrics English Translation by Zeynep Bastık
(feat. Tolga Akdoğan, Teoman)
from a summer day
or from the movie “tea in the desert”
there’s a scene in my mind
the actors are basically us
we’re both unhappy
they say some loves never end
ours is one of the ones that did
we’re just not cut out for loving
two strangers
together but alone
we’re two strangers
you know that sunset
the way it made us believe in god
right now that evening’s on my mind
but it was so long ago
our wounds weren’t that deep
still, I forgave all of it
both you and myself
you were just that absent
from a summer day
or from the movie “tea in the desert”
I’ve got scenes in my mind too
different from yours though
so stop fooling yourself
nobody beats you
at making beautiful things ugly
and blaming the world for it
what did you ever know the value of
you’ll know the value of mine
and of course you’ll ruin that too
two strangers
together but alone
we’re two strangers
