Half A World Away Lyrics
Tu me tocas
Tu me abrases
Y tu me llamas
Pero me siento solamente
Muy solas
Across the sand
The warm air blows
From her eyes you know
She was half a world away
Bites her lip and pulls her clothes
Caressed her thigh and soon
Night would turn to day
She was half a world away
Half a world away
He tells her not to close her eyes
Lifts his hands up to her face
And wipes her hand away
He's the master of the lies
He makes the rules up for this game
He'll tell her what to say
And send her half a world away (half a world away)
My child, half a world away (half a world away)
Don't close your eyes (half a world away)
We're all on the run, from something we fear inside (half the world away)
"We don't really know ourselves at all"
Tu me abrases
Y tu me llamas
Pero me siento solamente
Muy solas
The warm air blows
From her eyes you know
She was half a world away
Caressed her thigh and soon
Night would turn to day
Half a world away
Lifts his hands up to her face
And wipes her hand away
He makes the rules up for this game
He'll tell her what to say
My child, half a world away (half a world away)
Don't close your eyes (half a world away)
We're all on the run, from something we fear inside (half the world away)
"We don't really know ourselves at all"

"You make me touch myself, you make me burn, and you call to me, but I am so alone, so lonley"
This is one of my favorite songs.
Sounds to me like a young, naive girl is being led around by a guy (maybe older) who gets pleasure from the control he has over her. Leads into Lounge perfectly. Both songs have an undeniable Sade influence.
Thanks for the translation, VTBFlame!
