Mariposa Triste
Ahyre
Sad Butterfly
What gray path brought you
New tired butterfly
What old pain you kept silent
Under your dark circles wanting to forget
Who pushed you into my arms
To open the night of my loneliness
I gave you the flower thinking
That you needed to return to love
And it was a broken blue time
By four words hitting without voice
Who put bitterness in your mouth
So you would give me just a goodbye
When my town is fading into shadows
When my blood unintentionally names you
When love and summer play by the river
My soul falls apart
Who tore you from my arms
Sad butterfly tired of walking
Where was the sun that afternoon
When you spread your wings and took flight
What shell of night
Wrapped you in the darkness of the night
Who took you down the street
Where life hides to cry
But your eyes are in me
Like two thorns wanting to return
And on the shore of summer
My hands will walk seeking your skin
Who locked you in my guitar
Pale cicada of my evening
When my town is fading into shadows
When my blood unintentionally names you
When love and summer play by the river
My soul falls apart
Who tore you from my arms
Sad butterfly tired of walking
Oh oh oh ohh
