[Verse 1]
I learn card tricks and she reads horror novels to me
Until I sleep and then we start again
Sometimes we say nothing and listen quietly to the city
Pulling on a cigarette and grin until she laughs
Buy vintage junk and fall in love again
Give her a small thing and how happy she is about it
In shady alleys, on old marble
Don't understand a word of Italian, sounds Spanish to us
The grey knowledge impresses
You can't study life
Pet cats in foreign windows
Leave traces in the alleys like ghosts
Our shadows dance through the ghettos like two gangsters
What we had we'll still have when we're retired

[Chorus]
Now we're sitting with a can of beer in Sardinia on the roof
The tenors from the city sends it into the corny night
At every other place, at every other day
I would have had enough of the beauty
And would've destroyed it again

[Verse 2]
The suns burns itself in the skin and into the mind
My only worry is, that it's not real
And barefoot I'm hard but also softened
But I think Aristocats was drawn here
Giovanni looks like Ronaldo
Just holds the ball distinctly worse up
Again, sleeps the day away in the hammock
Laugh about tourist beaches and go to bed afterwards
Cobblestones, oleander
Colorful houses, wrinkles under sunglasses
Thriftshops on the streets, fresh tattoos, yeah
Plastic jewellery and junk
That blows under the shutters
Tomato sauce in a fleecy beard
Shadow in the corridor and sun on the eaves
Here I can escape the burden
[Chorus]
Now we're sitting with a can of beer in Sardinia on the roof
The tenors from the city sends it into the corny night
At every other place, at every other day
I would have had enough of the beauty
And would've destroyed it again
