En Privado

You talk like everything you say is being scripted for you
So control your lips, your nose
Because they’re proposing it to me
The words got mixed up as they left your whimsical mouth
Like a roadside casino dealer playing tarot for cash

What you’re saying doesn’t add up
Let’s do it anyway, in private
I don’t care about the consequences
Let’s do it anyway, in private

You move like everything you do is being suggested to you
From behind your ear or from some point I can’t even guess
I think I understand your intentions
They seriously affect me
You reminded me one afternoon, downwind at the port of Quequén

What you’re saying doesn’t add up
Let’s do it anyway, in private
I don’t care about the consequences
Let’s do it anyway, in private

There’s a hidden intrigue in every oyster
A cluster of pearls in general
I’m a seeker, one of those who won’t settle
Where no one finds, I will find
You set your gaze somewhere just out of my reach
From afar, you signaled something confusing, what we both assume
Let’s lose something together, at least, and celebrate the agreement
It’s just that you’re so beautiful and I’m enchanted
And there’s no remedy for this
