Teach me your love so I can be sadI've been in need for ages for a woman to make me sadFor a women for me to cry in her arms like a sparrowTeach me your love so I can be sadI've been in need for ages for a woman to make me sadFor a women for me to cry in her arms like a sparrowFor a woman to gather my pieces like shards of broken crystalTeach me your love milady my worst habitsTeach me to open my cup at night a thousand timesAnd test the medecine of perfumes and knock on the door of IraqTeach me to leave my house to comb the sidewalksAnd follow your face with the rains and in the headlights of carsAnd the light of your eyes is millions of starsOh woman you made the world dizzy oh my pain Put your love in me milady cities of sadnessWhile I did not enter cities of sadness from your heartI didn't ever know that tears are manThat man without sadness is a memory of a manTeach me your love so I can behave like a childSo I can draw your face with chalk on the wallsOh woman you upturned my history and I've been slaughtered by youFrom artery to arteryTeach me your love, how can love change the map of time?Teach me, when I love the Earth will stop turningTeach me your love, things that were never expectedAnd I read childrens stories and entered the castles of the kings of the JinnAnd I dreamed that the sultan's daughter would marry meHer eyes were clearer than the water of the gulfsHer lips were more crimson than pomegranate blossomsAnd I dreamed that I took her like a knightAnd I dreamed that I gave her bracelets of pearl and coralTeach me your love milady oh the deliriumTeach me how to pass the years without the coming of the sultan's daughterPut your love in me milady cities of sadnessWhile I did not enter cities of sadness from your heartI didn't ever know that tears are manThat man without sadness is a memory of a man
