Cerca De Mí
Elefantes
Close to Me
Now that I have a moment, I dare to think of you.
When I turn off the lights, I start looking for you.
Among vague memories, I fall asleep.
With a dream as sweet as your black eyes.
Your smile is sad, let me be curious,
what do you keep inside?
And the night so dark and the moon so clear.
You barely realize that in my gaze
only you are there.
I don't intend to overwhelm you, just to tell you
that the world tonight is on our side
in case you don't know yet.
Close to me.
I want you to be close to me.
Close to me,
I want to have you very close to me.
Your gaze lost in a sea of questions.
From the shore, I shout if you need my help
even if you don't see me, I'm behind you.
With water so clear that takes care of your body,
little by little, suffering will come,
I don't know if by then I'll still be here.
Trying to listen to twenty silent voices,
today I try to tame twenty golden mares
like the sun about to rise.
Twenty fingers point to your twenty summers.
Twenty days, twenty nights, are twenty gifts
that I keep for you.
That I keep for you.
