Cartas Amarillas

I dreamed I’d wake up again,
I dreamed of autumns long gone.
My light has gone out,
my night has come,
I searched for your gaze but couldn’t find it.
The rain has stopped falling,
sitting on the beach of forgetfulness
I shaped in the sand
your calm image,
your hair I drew with seaweed.

And I searched through your yellow letters
for a thousand I love yous, a thousand caresses
and a flower that between two pages
fell asleep.
And my empty arms closed tight
clinging to nothing,
trying to hold onto my youth.

At last today I’ve returned to the truth,
my empty hands have searched for you,
the ivy has grown,
the sun has gone to sleep,
I call you but you no longer hear my voice.

And I searched through your yellow letters
for a thousand I love yous, a thousand caresses
and a flower that between two pages
fell asleep.
And my empty arms closed tight
clinging to nothing,
trying to hold onto my youth.
And I searched through your yellow letters
for a thousand I love yous, a thousand caresses
and a flower that between two pages
fell asleep...
