Life spread out on the desk
that does not interest us
you wanted to bring us news
but the wall stood between us
everything freezes, stands in shadow
You might try harder
this heart hears all
this heart insists insists
wants to escape but for the water
like a wall and there is no answer
Quickly
you will be our eyes
that will finally open the heart
everything freezes, stands in shadow
return quickly
remember that we stood between walls of water
we saw it all occur
now everything stands in shadow
return quickly
as in the past
you would roam the vast desert
In the end we escaped because of you
but you were the last to see the land1
that became the floor of our lives
you saw the land from far away
now everything has changed customs, the longing has finally passed
what burned in our hearts remains in you
but with us all freezes, stands in shadow
Quickly
you will be our eyes
that will finally open the heart
everything freezes, stands in shadow
return quickly
remember that we stood between walls of water
we saw it all occur
now everything stands in shadow
return quickly
as in the past
you would roam the vast desert
