Alegre I Encantada

I've searched a thousand and one treasures from square to square
I've negotiated with the clock at every step
I've shed sweet tears almost everywhere
And I've danced with every moon and seen the voice set

The memory under the skin has become a trench
And your body now takes the shape of a song
And when I sleep, my dream is a prison and you are a prisoner
And when the wind blows, the curse falls

Assault me like the night on the rooftops
Tear desire apart with bites
Come sleep with me joyful and enchanted
Assault me like the night on the rooftops

I've seen how life suffers and crumbles
I've seen how time slips through your fingers
With every step taken, a footprint is guessed
Behind another that fades, like a drawing in the sand

You are so ephemeral, I so awkward
That spring has fled in just one day
And now I long for that night that walked me through your body
When we were two in a single cry of rebellion

And it doesn't rest
Walking from anxiety, I've made a massacre
Your body is now a song and the wind is a dance
It takes it far away to find you
Where every journey renews hope
Holy life that never rests
Memory disguises itself as longing
Your body is now a song and the wind is a dance, is a dance

Assault me like the night on the rooftops
Rip desire from me with bites
Come sleep with me, joyful and enchanted
Assault me like the night on the rooftops

Come back to me
Come back to me
Come back
Come sleep with me joyful and enchanted
Assault me like the night on the rooftops

Your body will be a memory
And the memory longing
Longing will be a song
And the song will flee with the air

And it will cross the seas halfway around the world
And in a distant city
In a dance among everyone
It will make you dance
