Enredadera

Creeper
When I realized you had already grown around me
Like a creeper, full of flowers, of colors
When I realized everything was already wrapped up by you
And even though I couldn't move well, I already knew
It was just a matter of opening my arms, to let go of you
...And I did it.
I did it because there was still something else
In my body, in my mind, a persistent noise
Of old defeats
I did it because you didn't give me time to shake off
This mourning, this fear of suffering and leaving things broken.
But when they talk to me about you (3x)
I don't know what to say (4x)
Those days of yours are, a sensation of humidity
Of steam and smoke, of liquor and other stuff
Those days of yours are, a spatial sensation
Of a trip to the stars and discussions with Martians
But it was just a matter of opening my arms, to let go of you
...And I did it.
And now it seems so hard to walk through your streets
And not be afraid of having to call you
And now I'm afraid to meet you and feel that my hands
That my own hands don't want to touch you.
But when they talk to me about you (3x)
I don't know what to say (4x)
I wonder why, why did it have to be like this
I wonder why you don't entangle me
Why don't you entangle me again.
I wonder why, everything had to be like this
It was all a matter of moment, a matter of place and time.
Of place and time (3x)
