Après L'Amour

We loved each other, our joys were shared
And our hearts beat driven by this instinct
That unites lovers regardless of the rest

Slide your fingers through my partially open shirt
And place the palm of your hand on my skin
And with half-closed eyes we remain without saying a word
Without making a move

After love, when our bodies relax
After love, when our breaths are short

We remain lying down
You and me, almost naked
Happy, without saying anything
Illuminated by the same smile

After love, we become one being
After love, when our limbs are heavy

In the crumpled sheets
We remain embraced
After love
In the hollow of the day
To love
