Doce Palabras

Speed and recklessness
the magic of the first encounter
paranoia and ecstasy
movies and boredom
an unsolved mystery
three virtues I don't have

[chorus]
it's twelve words
it's twelve white grapes
as the year ends
and there's no news from you

twelve months waiting
to hear your voice on the other side
the silent phone, your twelve digits saved
I dial the cursed number
can't manage to talk to you

it's twelve words
it's twelve white grapes
as the year ends
and there's no news,
no trace of you

twelve saints and patrons
disappointment and abandonment
twelve prayers and promises
that have not yet been fulfilled
the twelve will ring, the twelve chimes
I don't believe in fairies
and my carriage is a pumpkin

just twelve words,
twelve words and I forget about you.
