(Lyrics & music: Yasmin Levy")
I drink and drink and drink
To forget you
I sleep and sleep and sleep
So I don't have to think.
Damned be the world,
I live to pay for the sin of loving you.
I leave you forever, my love
But don't forget that I exist only for you
And I give you the song of my life as a present
Forever... until I die.
Yasmin Levy - Sentir
