Lucia

This song takes flight
for you, Lucia
the most beautiful love story
that I had and will have.

It's a love letter
carried by the wind
painted in my voice
to nowhere
to no mailbox.

There's nothing more beautiful
than what I've never had
nothing more loved than what I lost.

Forgive me if
today I search in the sand
for that full moon that scratched the sea...

If I was ever a passing bird,
I left everything to nest in your arms.
If I was ever tender and kind,
it was tangled in your neck and your breasts.

If I was ever wise in love,
I learned it from your singing lips.
If I ever loved,
if I ever loved after loving,
it was for your love, Lucia, Lucia.

I am your memory
sweeter every day,
forgetting only took half,
and your shadow still slips into my bed
with the darkness,
between my pillow and my loneliness.
