A Pele Que Há Em Mim

When the day turned to dusk
And your body touched
In a corner of mine
A dance awoke
And the sun appeared
Grew into a giant
In an instant, it erased
The dew from the sky

And the calm waiting for a place in me
The desire counting down to the end.
It was in the air that gave you
And your song changed
And your body in mine
Pulled a braid
And the blood cooled
And my foot landed
My voice whispered
My dream died

Give me the sea, my river, my sidewalk.
Give me the empty room of my house
I'll leave you on the edge of your speech.
On the skin within me
You know nothing.

When love ended
And my body forgot
The path it walked
In the corners of yours
And the moonlight faded
And the night fell silent
The deep cold of the sky
Descended and stayed.

But the sorrow no longer resides in me
It's gone, worn out
Beyond the end
It's necessary to leave
It's the price of love
To return to living
I no longer feel
The taste
Of sweat and dread
From your bosom boiling
From your blood of flower
I don't want to know.

Give me the sea, my river, my road.
My empty boat in the early morning
I'll leave you in the cold of your speech.
In the vertigo of the voice
When it finally falls silent.
