L'histoire Sans Fin

I crossed the north
And I went through the south
To discover your body
And all its latitudes

I found some seas
Some sweet and some salty
You don’t believe me but
I’m gonna tell you

Dehydrated, on a summer day
A figure in the distance
Like an uncertain mirage
Reaches me

It’s an endless story
I crossed the port
And I went through the dunes
To listen once more

To the sounds of the lagoon
I discovered a palace
Strange and anise-flavored
You believe me, there it is

We can keep going
Rehydrated, on a summer night
A figure in the distance
Like an uncertain mirage

Comes back to me
In half-words
On this land
I was so hot
In this desert

Arid, burning, torrid
And vibrant
Solid and alive
