Let's pour a little... but not wine, time instead, So this evening will stay caught in memory. Let's shake the last of the day's bitter burden from our shoulders, The one that drove us forward all day long. Not for courage. But for tenderness. There are no strangers here, no one to forgive. The wine will serve only as a formality, So we can simply be. And simply sit in silence. So pour. Take your time. Come on. To the fact that tonight we're not strangers. Let the whole world run itself over the edge again, While you and I are still alive for just a little longer. Yes, you and I... are still alive for just a little longer. And let dawn arrive right on schedule, Take our coats from the nail, return us to our lives. Leaving us with just one memory And the shadow of hands along the edge of the table. We never swore to love or forever, Never promised faithfulness on the line. We shared an evening of humanity, The way bread, warmth, and silence are shared. So pour. Take your time. Come on. To the fact that tonight we're not strangers. Let the whole world run itself over the edge again, While you and I are still alive for just a little longer. Yes, you and I... are still alive for just a little longer. We won't save the world tonight... Besides, it doesn't want to be saved. The light from other people's apartments is enough for us, Along with this small, brief night. So pour! Take your time. Come on. To the fact that tonight we're not strangers! Let the whole world run itself over the edge again, While you and I are still alive for just a little longer. The way bread is shared... Warmth... And silence. Let's pour a little time.
