Beijo

I can't let you take
The punishment of absence,
I'll stay waiting
And you'll see me fight
So that this sea doesn't defeat us.
I can't think that tonight
I fall asleep alone,
I'll stay writing,
And maybe I'll overcome
Your long path.

I want you to know
That without you there's no moon,
Nor do the trees grow,
Or the hands dawn
Among the shadows of the street.

Take my arms,
Hide in me,
That the pain of silence
With you I conquer
In a kiss like this.

I can't help but feel you
In the memory of my hands,
I'll stay undressing you,
And maybe I'll hear you laugh
In the walls, on the floor.
I can't lie that the tears
Are longing for the kiss,
I'll stay more exposed
Than a defeated body,
Lost in desire.

I want you to know
That without you there's no moon,
Nor do the trees grow,
Or the hands dawn
Among the shadows of the street.
