When nothing indicated
that the life I led
would change as fast as that
For I was older than the old people in the park.
When the days didn't pass
and I only talked about my health
I saw you on the street, I recognised you
from the time of our youth
You had not married
and you did not have anyone
and you said you were happy like that
That the only woman
that you had truly loved
but who already had a soulmate -
it was me
And we slept together
two lovers
with no no time to lose
White hair entangled,
feet intertwined
no longer afraid to fall asleep
And I who believed
that life only gives us
a love like that just once
I give you a tight hug
and we go arm in arm
So everyone can see what life has done for us.
And we slept together
two lovers
with no no time to lose
White hair entangled,
feet intertwined
no longer afraid to fall asleep
no longer afraid to fall asleep
