Ben Değildim It Wasn't Me

Bir akşam üstü pencerenden bakıyordun
Ağır ağır, yollara inen karanlığa.
Bana benzeyen biri geçti evinin önünden.
Kalbin başladı hızlı hızlı çarpmaya..
O gecen ben değildim.

Bir gece, yatağında uyuyordun..
Uyanıverdin birden, sessiz dünyaya.
Bir rüyanın parçasıydı gözlerini açan,
Ve karanlıklar içindeydi odan...
Seni gören ben değildim.

Ben çok uzaktaydım o zaman,
Gözlerin kavuştu ağlamaya, sebepsiz ağlamaya.
Artık beni düşünmeye başladığından
Bıraktın kendini aşk içinde yasamaya..
Bunu bilen ben değildim.

Bir kitap okuyordun dalgın..
İçinde insanlar seviyor, ya da ölüyorlardı.
Genç bir adamı öldürdüler romanda.
Korktun, bütün yininle ağlamaya başladın..
O ölen ben değildim..

You were looking out of your window one evening
Looking into the darkness slowly going along the roads.
Somebody like me walked by your house.
Your heart started to beat fast..
It wasn't me who was walking.

One night, you were sleeping in your bed..
You woke up all of a sudden, into the silent world.
What opened your eyes was part of a dream,
And your room was full of darkness...
It wasn't me who saw you.

I was far away then,
Tears fell from your eyes, with no reason.
Because you started to think about me
You left yourself to the thought of love..
It wasn't me who knew this.

You were reading a book, lost in thoughts..
Where people were falling in love, or dying.
They killed a young man in that book.
You felt scared, and started to cry with your woman instincts..
It wasn't me who died..
