you took your pictures, you left me only tears
you left a chill in the room, you extinguished the candles
thoughts come to me again of a wonderful day yesterday
the two of us were together complementary in the darkness
if only you'd stayed in the room with me for a tiny moment
your heart would have been mine, there would have been hope
if only you'd said beautiful words and not in secret
I would have built you a nest of love
a house with a garden, warmth and protection
we'd have rooms, the rooms of the heart
three children and a difficult life
what does it matter to someone who loves
whom do you smile at, maybe you're sad
whom do you hug and to whom are you beloved
with you I always wanted to see the world
to touch the sky, to drift on the sea
if only you'd stayed in the room with me for a tiny moment...
a house with a garden, warmth and protection...
