La Carta

Not long ago I read your letter,
and, with no strength to reply,
thousands of pieces separate us in the wind.
I will build a house in a distant country
to forget
this fear towards you, this fear towards you.

And not long ago I broke
your memory thinking
to end it once and for all.
But time and distance
are not everything to me
there is always something that makes me come back.

I have always heard, and I no longer believe you
Why don't I understand you?
Why are you so far away?
I have always heard, and I no longer believe you
Why don't I understand you?
Why are you so far away?

I know I have always been like this
and I have no remedy,
nor do I want to have it.
But neither fear nor your letters
are everything to me
maybe I will blame you again.

I have always heard, and I no longer believe you
Why don't I understand you?
Why are you so far away?
I have always heard, and I no longer believe you
Why don't I understand you?
Why are you so far away?
