7 Mares

It's been three weeks since I heard nothing from you
Not a message, call, or any trace of your voice
How it hurts that our last chat ended in goodbye
You closed the doors on me and the wound opened

I'm looking out the window, watching couples stroll by
If I told you how much I want to talk to you again
A novel and four books to try to explain it
Words fall short, this is unnatural

And I don't want it to be, we're mental cases
I just want you to see me, even if you see all my flaws
I'd carve our names, but on moon rocks
I know there are many men, but none like me

My mom gave me life and you the will to live it
I'd give you my hand just to feel your skin
I don't have many virtues, but I hope it's enough for you
I'd give you all my soul, even if I had splinters left

Twenty nights in seven seas, may no one bother us
You know, think about it, you're the lock on my ship
And only I know the key, and no one else
And no one else, and no one else

Twenty nights in seven seas, may no one bother us
You know, think about it, you're the lock on my ship
And only I know the key
Only I know the key

If perfection were a minute, ma, you'd be the time
Writing you letters, that's my only talent
I've been dedicating songs to you since I wrote: Slow
And I'll keep singing until I die trying

I can't go on, I don't know how to smile
Just one kiss from you, baby, is worth a thousand
If I have to see you from afar, I don't want to see you at all
And just to see you here, baby, I'm reborn

I feel outside and smoke another cig with coffee
The smoke flies and draws your figure in the air
And whether I have you closer or farther away
I'll feel like I'm dying when I see myself in the mirror

My mom gave me life and you the will to live it
I'd give you my hand just to feel your skin
I don't have many virtues, but I hope it's enough for you
I'd give you all my soul, even if I had splinters left

Twenty nights in seven seas, may no one bother us
You know, think about it, you're the lock on my ship
And only I know the key, and no one else
And no one else, and no one else

Twenty nights in seven seas, may no one bother us
You know, think about it, you're the lock on my ship
And only I know the key
Only I know the key
