I still remember the corner lamppost
Tenderly, it would light my lies
I wasn't sixteen like I said I was
I was a candy-aged boy
You kissed me before the moon and my two cousins
Blushing even the clothes I was wearing
Tender lips that killed my vigil
They would steal the toys of those days
The football matches with my friends
I exchanged them for kisses and cigarettes
I was a God that made summer on your cheek
An astronaut among your breasts of Aphrodite
And they go, they go inside
Your memories are stars that
don't stop raining
We went late to look at the daylight
Time would fly with so much silliness
I would paint new freckles on your stomach
You would invent a way of loving me
I would conjure with Neruda and his words
A spell so you would never leave
And you did without notice that morning
In which the world was the corral of my misfortune
And you swore you would return some summer
To the lamppost, I swear I never left
No man ever missed you like this
No boy ever adored you like that
My beautiful girl you left in my pockets
A sad scent of kisses and cigarettes
I was a God who made summer on your cheek
An astronaut among your breasts of Aphrodite
And they go, they go inside
Your memories are stars that
don't stop raining
And they go, they go inside
Your memories are stars that
don't stop raining
Your stars never ever stop... raining
