Love is a rebellious bird that no one can tame, and if you call for it, it’ll be quite in vain for it’s in its nature to say no. Nothing helps, neither a threat nor a prayer one talks well, the other rests silent and it’s the other one that I prefer doesn’t say a thing, but pleases me. Love! Love! Love! Love!

Love is a gypsy’s child, it has never, never known what law is, if you do not love me, I love you if I love you, then beware! If you do not love me, if you do not love me, I love you! But if I love you, if I love you, then beware!

Love is a gypsy’s child, it has never, never known what law is, if you do not love me, I love you if I love you, then beware! If you do not love me, if you do not love me, I love you! But if I love you, if I love you, then beware!

The bird you thought you had caught by surprise beats it wings and lies away…love lies afar, you can wait for it and when you don’t expect it anymore, there it is! All around you twirls faster, faster it comes and goes, and then comes back. You think you’ve caught it, it eludes you, you think you’ve escaped it, it captures you. Love! Love! Love! Love!
