Four in the morning,
a ring wakes me
Still sleeping, I answer while coughing
Can’t hear all that well It’s apparently an overseas call
Hello? Hello?
Mi amor,
It's Miguel
I'm calling you in Israel
Just to say that Iove you (×2)
Did I wake you up?
Are you sleeping alone?
Is that a man’s voice I hear on the phone?
You know that I love you.
who will? Miguel?
It lands on me like a blow,
Tropics and fishing with a fishing rod,
Love is only possible in a distant country
And I am a million light years away,
Deep in confusion,
I had not recovered since I came back from abroad.
Yesterday the electricity was cut off,
I have no gas for two months,
Still playing but nothing moved.
Mi amor, it's Miguel
I'm calling you in Israel
Just to say that I love you
Just to say that I love you
For a moment it sounds so possible
Just take off
I’m coming! I tell him.
Why not? Life is a movie
I’m a liberated woman
Did I wake you up?
Are you sleeping alone?
Is that a man's voice
I hear on the phone?
You know that I love you
Go explain to him that me and you
It's a scratch of years
Language War and Recession and Hot Winds
He’s a Red Indian, what does he understand?
The call is cut off, I’m silent
You sit on the bed with a serious look
Now it’s real
Mami, this is Moshe. Listen, or… or
You’re with him, or you’re with me
Did I wake you up?
Are you sleeping alone?
Is that a man's voice I hear on the phone?
You know that I love you
I love you
I love you
Hallo, baby!
