about

This is a musical adaptation of the Roman poet Catulus's works regarding the woman he loved.

lyrics

Let us live and let us love my dear Lesbia,
Let us count all the rumors at only a penny,
Suns fall and rise,
We sleep a never-ending night,
Kiss me just once and then give me,
A couple hundred,

Will you still be here in the morning?
Will I still be the man you're adoring?

You ask me how many kisses are enough,
I answer how many grains of sand are on earth?
How many stars are in the sky?
How long till your sparrow dies?
Kiss me once more just kiss me long enough to last the whole night.

Will you still be here in the morning?
When I'm no longer the man you're adoring?

Your sparrow bit your finger.
The little marks still linger.
Its feathers fell and broke your soft warm heart.
Leaving me alone cause it tore us both apart.

Dear Catulus you must stop being so naive.
Deep down You knew all this time she was bound to leave,
You held her hand and begged her this can't be the end,
But Catulus please just be strong, stand fast.

You won't be here in the morning,
Cause you weren't the man shes adoring.
