La Loca

The world was just for the two of us, and for us,
their home was clouds stretched out in the sun,
in their gazes, love in her answer, yes, and
for their pain, just one end,
he left, his hair painted gray,
she stopped taking care of the flowers in the garden,
and they said, come on, we have to live,

and the kids from the block called her crazy,
and some guys in white coats said, come on,
and she shouted, no sir, can’t you see, I’m not crazy,
I was crazy yesterday, but it was for love,

in the hospital, on a bench in the sun, you can see her
smiling, checking her old watch,
thinking about the one who left,
and took her heart with him,
he won’t come back, he waits in his clouds in the sun,
in that world of yesterday that was just for the two of us,
in that world where love triumphed,

and the kids from the block called her crazy,
and some guys in white coats said, come on,
and she shouted, no sir, can’t you see, I’m not crazy,
I was crazy yesterday, but it was for love,
and the kids from the block called her crazy,
and some guys in white coats said, come on,
and she shouted, no sir, can’t you see, I’m not crazy,
I was crazy yesterday, but it was for love,
but it was for love, it was for loooove.
