Al Norte Del Norte

NORTH OF THE NORTH

This is to tell you
That it's starting to snow here
The beach looks like a bear
Sleeping by the sea
It's a strange morning
In February in Gijón
Today I feel much further
From those warm nights
And this is to tell you
How much I think of you
There's ice on the cars
Did you ever live here?
Sorry, I can't seem to remember
I looked out my window
I know these streets so well
I'll search for you in my mind
Even if I can't see you
And I remembered seeing the Wall
Something I heard you say one day
"I live north of the north
It's cold in my country
Far from everything, far from you"
And if I ever hurt you
In this or another corner
I want you to know with this
That it wasn't my intention
If it was, you weren't the reason
And one day I had news
From a voiceless foreigner
Claiming to be your lover
And if they were, who was I?
I think I spoke too much
Now I have to go out
It's still snowing out there
Take care and be happy
Loving you,
N.
