Quinta Sinfonia

When I remember who you were
From that body that was ours
From that love that didn't work out
It was the time of chimeras
Of words in silence
When the farthest was close
You had hope in your eyes
The desires for adventure
The illusions that were mine
In moments of tenderness
You had the grace in your breasts
Of the springs you had
And you were the music that stayed in me
When distance separated us
I'm crazy to find you

You were the fifth symphony
Escape from our truth
Sonata played in me
You were my tuned sun
In this samba of longing
Vinicius, Nara, and Jobim
You were a ballad verse
You were abstract painting
My Ravel's bolero
You were dreamed music
In a Sinatra song
With a Brel poem
And you were the music that stayed in me
When distance separated us
I'm crazy to find you

You were a movie star
My lady from Shanghai
Hiroshima, my love
My great illusion
You were the fury of living
The hotter the better
Great love of my life
Sense, silence, passion
Buñuel, Fellini, Truffaut
You were the lights of the stage
Music in the heart
And all is gone with the wind
And you're still what makes me feel
Inside life to sing to you
I'm crazy to find you
To find you...
