Gabriela

Gabriela has the gaze of those who love
Only the simple things in life
She likes to dye herself in rain
When the rain splashes her in the gallery
He works all the hours of the days
To earn what won't be spent in seven lives
And she dreams of his kisses
And he only counts coins

Gabriela can travel wherever she wants
The budget would surely be enough
But she has chosen the window of her living room
To watch how life slowly passes by
She likes sunrises
But she liked them much more in his company
When he wasn't so rich
Many times, they saw them

Her arms itch
When so much loneliness sprouts
She tells him crying
While he looks at her like an idiot

Don't let go of me, because I fly
Don't love me, because I want
Give me a day halfway if it's with you
That will be enough for me
Don't let go of me, because I fly
Don't love me, because I want
Give me that life is wherever and if it's with you
And not in a cold palace, where I'll just miss you
You can't buy time when it's late

So the years began to pass
Full of loneliness and monotony
While he took a flight to London
She started taking alcohol with some pills
Sailing through the eternal seas
Of a bed without anyone to keep her company
Resigning to the sunrises
To not dye herself in rain in the gallery anymore

He found her on an afternoon back
She was cold as the marble of the staircase
The omniscience of this narrator is not enough
To say: What the hell, Gabriela died?
But she died and he became so crazy
That he never wanted to go outside again
He condemned himself to solitude
Where Gabriela lived so unhappily

Now, he repeats like a madman
What Gabriela used to tell him
While he burns with contempt
His bills in the bonfire

Don't let go of me, because I fly
Don't love me, because I want
Give me a day halfway if it's with you
That will be enough for me
Don't let go of me, because I fly, oh-oh
Don't love me, because I want
Give me a day halfway if it's with you
That will be enough for me

Don't let go of me, because I fly
Don't love me, because I want
Give me that life is wherever and if it's with you
And not in a cold palace, where I'll just miss you
You can't buy time when it's late
