How to break the silence at three in the morning
With a guitar and fresh strings
That’s how it was to have you in front of me, naked, lying on the sand
I didn’t know anyone, you were selling old stuff
And at four in the afternoon, July tenth
Who’s left with that heat on the street?
You dressed the sidewalk in flowers
I said give me everything and you gave me the sentence of hearing your laughter forever
Now who’s gonna pull me away from you, who’s all the beauty happening in my world?
If I wake up from this deep coma of not feeling
I could say that I love her
Even if I don’t learn her name
If one day, caught up in the night, she remembers me
I’m gonna take her with me for the rest of my life
And she showed me Cabo de Gata
And in just a few hours, it was already done
The one who wrote under her back: Come with me
And in the flamenco of her eyes
My full moon is out of tune
And, undressing me at her whim, she said: Wait
I’ll bring the foam to soak us both
Don’t let this night end for my heart
That, if you want, I’ll stay to take care of your love
And there was a river in her right eye
And so I filled her perfect face with kisses
We danced so slow that time lost its mind
I could say that I love her
Even if I don’t learn her name
If one day, caught up in the night, she remembers me
I’m gonna take her with me for the rest of my life
I’m gonna remember you for the rest of my life
