Seni dusunecegim her zaman (I will think of you always)

Always I want for you to say  
'seni seviyorum canım (I love you my dear)  
benimle gel, benimle seviş' (come with me, make love with me)  
but you don't seem to love me that way  
however much I love you, and I  
can't chase you forever  

we've got something special  
the easy way we are together  
I can feel it, you seem to feel it too  
ama (but) I can't give you my everything  
my correct and natural past decisions  
mean I can't and we both know it  
I imagine it's why you don't  
 
if we had met (to quote Alan Parsons) 'some other place, some other time'  
well aşkım (my love), I am sure we would be lovers  
eat roast apples, drink red wine  
yet you are adamant  
you are leaving  
and I am  
secretly  
relieved  
 
otherwise who knows how  
or where, or in what Xanadu  
we, we two, we together lovers come  
eğer sen beni için benim başatım oluyorsun  
(if you for me my dominant you are being)  
ben seni için senin uysalım olacağım  
(I for you your submissive I will be)  
besbelli hayatım sana veririm  
(I would give my life to you)  
 
goodbye my love, goodbye friend  
goodbye, goodbye, goodbye  
go far away across the sea  
live your life and flourish  
be happy and be free  
yet carry with you  
this little piece  
of my heart  
of my love  
of me.
