Fatal Summer
I saw you on a stage trying to shoot
at this lonely guy, I don't have to get close,
your eyes found me in the last song,
I don't know if it was a promise or a premonition.
I watch you descend and a strange feeling afterwards,
how little by little I'm starting to shrink,
arriving in the city the weather woman will tell us
that a calm spring will always be followed by a fatal summer.
We don't have to hide, someone will find us,
doing the wrong thing is a way to get it right,
the morning picks us up where the city dies,
me looking for your strength and you my weakness.
I hear you again in that special way of speaking,
to be a good singer you have to sing off-key,
today it's hotter and you have me trapped in your corner,
who could imagine what a fatal summer had in store for us.
And here the nights come and go like a jet
and everything that is born, is born almost by mistake,
and the seagulls scream that the end of a fatal summer is near,
of a fatal summer.
I lose you among the people who have come to celebrate
that the president is coming and says he will save us,
I see footsteps on the shore and I find you again
in the water on your knees praying towards the high seas.
And we talk about love but it's time to say goodbye
and the old man who knows nothing with his accordion
and as we flee the city the weather woman will tell us
that a disastrous autumn will always be preceded by a fatal summer.
