Sin La Luna
Alejandro Filio
Without the Moon
If I repeat your name
after another day
and another night with me,
if your scent runs through me
and between chest and guitar
the emptiness grows,
if these hands between chord and chord
remembering your hair
we don't need so much sky
if the moon of your skin is not there.
If between verse and breath
a deep blue opens up
that tints the time,
if I look at you against the light
and the edge of your body
becomes sharper,
if this note doesn't reach your tone
and singing and breathing you
I'm not alone, I go with myself
and the trail of this song behind.
I can talk about you with my friends,
my song, my silence, my with myself,
I can find your trace if I want to today
I know perfectly where I left you.
