Penelope

I wake up at dawn, dreaming I don't know what
I have breakfast with rain and remember you in the coffee
I dreamt of your distant figure
Waiting in the suburbs of oblivion
And I saw myself alone sailing on golden ships
Filled with gifts for you
And then I saw that out of jealousy the sea of my torments
Swallowed the ship, of that madman I was
And everything shipwrecked

How far you, how far me
The debris of my life slides through the rain
Remembering Penelope

I abandon myself to the waves, spat out by the sea
Years have passed, no one knows where you are
The deserted streets at night
And your face is drawn in my memory
The trees embrace
Like forests of skeletons in the rain
My dream shipwrecked

How far you, how far me
Tears of mint rain down and I get drunk with bitterness
Forgetting Penelope

How far you, how far me
The debris of my life slides through the rain
Forgetting Penelope
I take refuge in the taverns and become taciturn
Forgetting Penelope
How far you, how far me
What remains of my life I waste in the dives
Remembering Penelope
