At the rock

12 1 0
                                    

I stand on the edge of the cliff

And look at all those who were pushed by a hand

And were forced to build wings

Now they are lit by a magnificent star,

I look at them wandering far away

Further than the furthest places

Someone is coming closer, like they want to say:

Someone will know,

Someone is coming closer, like they want to say:

Let life melt in her hands, like snow...



I am in front of your door

Reading a message carved with a knife

That they now have to leave again,

That they are are now traversing the high noon

and the fairy tale beach,

 Further than the furthest places

Someone is coming closer, like they want to say:

Someone will know,

Someone is coming closer, like they want to say:


Don't ask me if love can resurrect

Someone said they saw it happen once

Remember, when they left you alone

The scorpion you found when you picked up the rock

The rock that had a castle that reached the skies

For sailors, like them, a port

And you can hear again this night

The sound of coins that fate threw in the fountain,

I remember her scent,

The circles that relaxed under her eyes.

Go, you won't regret it,

Tell her that you came  and will feel it,

You will feel her breath by your side

On a night with a full moon, on her flying carpet



Let life melt in her hands, like snow...

Let life melt in her hands, like snow...

Let life melt in her hands, like snow...
