La Despedida

Something came to a standstill
And the silence was so great, the lack of love was so great
Remnants of a ship that was running aground
I wanted you, I loved you
I'm not sure what happened

When the jasmine flowers don't perfume
When we only see mist
When the story ended

Everything seems insignificant to us
It's not a matter of age or luck
This is what love is about

I have to run, you have to run at full speed
At full speed...

I see your pupils discovering some Chagall
In the winter, I believe from '83
I'm by your side, sorting through old books that I read but forgot

Kisses from your mother on the phone
And the rain is a mirror that helps me see you clearly
I hear your smile that lights up the study and the kitchen
Among the glasses and the coffee

I have to run, you have to run at full speed
At full speed...

The liquor of beloved things tastes bitter
The best is over, who takes away this wound from us?
You lose me, I consider you lost
It's time to flee, the farewell,
The farewell...

I have to run, you have to run at full speed
At full speed...
