El tiempo a solas [English translation]

The years fall after you

Dry leaves in my garden but like this

Only like this do I know how to live

Time hisses after me

Opposite the wall of the horizon

And like this, only like this, do I know how to live

I pass the dead time alone, deciphering God

Dead time, dead heart

There’s already no path

Only trails in the sea of my life

Sketching its end

And if I could go to where you are

Seize your hand and fly face-to-face

I would tell you that I love you without pity

If the silence comes for me

May it catch me thinking of you

Because like that, only like that, am I happy

I pass the dead time alone, deciphering God

Dead time, dead heart

There’s already no path

Only trails in the sea of my life

Sketching its end

And if I could go to where you are

Seize your hand and fly face-to-face

I would tell you that I love you without pity

There’s already no path

Only trails in the sea of my life

Sketching its end

And if I could go to where you are

Seize your hand and fly face-to-face

I would tell you that I love you without pity
