Can Sahin - ISTANBUL Lyrics

I walked by the sea
Crossing by a woman in red
Her right palm has a sacred sign
Coming from the old ages
Istanbul, dark city of the light land
Istanbul, mon amour
Istanbul, squeeze me like a lemon
Hug me tight, Leave me alone
I watched the maiden try to fly
She can't reach the sky
'cause she sticks to the rock of Bosphorus
By the angel of the evil water
Istanbul, dark city of the light land
Istanbul, mon amour
Istanbul, squeeze me like a lemon
Hug me tight, Leave me alone
The man, weary of solitude
Lost amongst twenty million souls
Trying hard upon the seven hills
Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one
Istanbul, city with the seven hills
Istanbul, no place to hide out
Istanbul, squeeze me like a lemon
Hug me tight, Leave me alone
