Marinero de Luces

That sailboat loaded with dreams
Crossed the bay
Left me that afternoon, waving the handkerchief
Sitting on the shore

Sailor of lights
With a fiery soul and a sun-kissed back
Your sailboat got lost, wandering the seas
Stranded in the sand

You forgot that I, moonlit seagull
Was waiting for you
And you drifted away on silver waves
Singing, singing
That afternoon, you were intoxicated
By the scent of the sea

You forgot that I, air swallow
Was waiting for you
You took with you
My last kisses, my last years
That afternoon, you were intoxicated
By the smell of orange blossom

That sailboat, loaded with dreams
Crossed the bay
Left me your fiery gaze
Stuck in mine

Sailor of lights
Of sun and shadow, of sea and olive
Your silence stayed, red and sandy
Stuck in mine

You forgot that I, moonlit seagull, was waiting for you
And you drifted away, on silver waves
Singing, singing
That afternoon, you were intoxicated
By the scent of the sea

You forgot that I, air swallow
Was waiting for you
You took with you, my last kisses
My last years
That afternoon, you were intoxicated
By the smell of orange blossom
That sailboat, loaded with dreams
Crossed the bay
