Tiza y Papel

I drew your name in my blue notebook
With crooked letters and dreams of light
During recess I looked for your voice
Playing hide-and-seek with the teacher

I didn't know what it was to feel
I just knew I wanted to see you laugh

Chalk and paper, promises in the air
Love drawings that I didn't know how to keep
Between crayons and idle afternoons
My heart began to tremble

You shared sweets with your gaze
I pretended not to look back
A I love you made of paper
Folded and thrown without knowing what to do

I didn't understand why it hurt
When you were absent on rainy days

Chalk and paper, promises in the air
Love drawings that I didn't know how to keep
Between crayons and idle afternoons
My heart began to tremble

And even if time erases that corner
I still hear your voice in my song
Small heartbeats, for no reason
My first love was an illusion

Chalk and paper, promises in the air
Love drawings that I couldn't erase
If I close my eyes, I can still see you
Playing with me in eternity
