Lyrics and translation

Original

I didn't feel good at all, but you came to cushion my heart ache and I could laugh once more.
And love, we did, oh yeah, we laughed a lot.
And I felt safe in the world knowing you were there.
-Shouldn't have lasted that long. -Couldn't last that long.
'Cause I was writing records with all my old love songs.
When they closed the borders, you couldn't come.
Still I felt safe in the world knowing you were there.
If this felt strange, I just added it to the list of things I couldn't explain. Most of what good it is,
I, I just didn't know what this was.
No language for my love.
No language for my love.
And when I got home that year, I took a black cab from the station.
The streets were dressed in fear.
A world I hadn't seen but heard was here.
Still I felt safe in the world knowing you were there.
Meet me in the park, and we'll sit on walls and talk until the day gets dark. And the red lights of our bikes mirror in my heart.
Never really sure of what is safe but here we are.
Here we are.
If this felt strange, I just added it to the list of things I couldn't explain.
Most of what good it is,
I, I just didn't know what this was.
No language for my love. No language for my love.
No language for my love.
No language for my love.
