Rosas

On one of those days when I usually think,
today will be the least expected day,
we crossed paths
you decided to look at the blue eyes that are now by your side
from the moment I met you
showing off in a hurry, moments of silence
I swear I haven't told anyone else
that we hold the world record in loving each other

That's why I was waiting, with a tear-stained face, for you to arrive with roses
(yes, a thousand roses for me)
because you know I love those things,
it doesn't matter if it's silly, that's how I am
and it still seems unbelievable that my life is slipping away
imagining that you'll come back around here,
where every Friday evening, as always, hope says
be still and maybe yes

One night, escaping a yawn from the sun,
you asked me for a kiss,
how cheap love can be,
why does it cost you so little to silence me with one of those?
Six months passed and you said goodbye,
it was a pleasure to coincide in this life,
there I stood with my hand on my heart,
and in the other, excuses that even you didn't understand

That's why I was waiting, with a tear-stained face, for you to arrive with roses
(yes, a thousand roses for me)
because you know I love those things,
it doesn't matter if it's silly, that's how I am,
and it still seems unbelievable that my life is slipping away,
imagining that you'll come back around here,
where every Friday evening, as always, hope says
be still and maybe yes

And I start to think,
that true love is only the first one,
and I start to suspect,
that the others are just to forget

That's why I was waiting, with a tear-stained face, for you to arrive with roses
(yes, a thousand roses for me)
because you know I love those things,
it doesn't matter if it's silly, that's how I am,
and it still seems unbelievable that my life is slipping away,
imagining that you'll come back around here,
where every Friday evening, as always, hope says
be still and maybe yes
