The last of me remains with you,
Despite the journey away from us,
You are the measure of all things, my fundamental,
Our love, immortalized in lyrics, in dreams concealed.
I will be the first, But will you feel the same when we meet on the other side? I'll be content with your smileβ¦
Outside, the sunset and sea await,
The wind blowing outside the revolving door,
The road like gray carpet paving,
The way for a long walk by the shore.
Stepping out with no looking back, Here comes me, here comes me!
The wind in my hair, I follow the track,
But upon the horizon, nothing to see.
Hands in pockets, an empty house waiting,
On the bed, a pillow yawns on a creased sheet,
The stairs sigh with each creaking step,
A heavy climb of exhausted feet.
Here comes me, here comes me! Embraced by an old scent creeping on the bed,
Cringing at the dream I foresee,
Sunset and sea waiting in my head.
