La place
Clara Luciani
The square
At the end of the street, I see you
And I can already tell
That you haven't changed
What will you think of me?
I've lost my way a little
I've searched in every country
For what was hidden here
That I hadn't seen
I had to come back
To where I know every street
Here I am again, just like before, but as an adult
Even though time is a brute
It's no match for the heart
Here I am again, just like before, but as an adult
Even though time is a brute
It's no match for the heart
I had friends in this city
I had lovers
I've forgotten their names
My memory is unruly
Everything comes back to me in sensations
Here I am again, just like before, but as an adult
Even though time is a brute
It's no match for the heart
Here I am again, just like before, but as an adult
Even though time is a brute
It's no match for the heart
These are colors, lights
That my memory has drunk in
That my heart recognizes
Laying my hand on The earth
See the house where I was born
Here I am again, just like before, but as an adult
Even though time is a brute
It's no match for the heart
Here I am again, just like before, but as an adult
Even though time is a brute
It's no match for the heart
Here I am again
At the end of the street, I see you
And I already know
That you haven't changed
What will you think of me?
I've been a little damaged
