He came to flourish
In my crystal eyes
The wind carried everything away
And once more he returns here at sunrise
So far, so close
To everything as it was
Deserted cities
Nature has covered up
Budding flowers
Your eyes so dark
I've come back here to wake up
So close and so far from
What once was
My eyes are stinging
My eyes sting from running so much behind the horses
My eyes are stinging
My eyes sting from running so much behind your brothers
My eyes are stinging
My eyes sting from loving you so very much
My eyes are stinging
My eyes sting so much
A tear of deceit falls from my pupil and runs down slowly
One day it will arrive where it must arrive
Or it will remain lost between my lips
It was true
That I wanted to see you
It was true
That I wanted to love you
It was true
That I wanted very much to see you
It was true
That I wanted so much to love you, just you
That day I ate until I burst
And I couldn't stop talking
I tried to get over it but nothing worked
You carried me in your arms, I couldn't walk
That day I thought I was going to burst
Flowers were coming out of my ears
That day I only wanted to dance with you
But I couldn't do it
I kept trying
I draped myself in your arms
I invented another story for myself
Then, the dance ended
And you carried me to a lover's couch
I made myself into a little ball of wool against you and fell asleep shattered
That day I thought I was going to burst
Flowers were coming out of my ears
That day happiness was overflowing
I let myself be swept away
That day I thought I was going to burst
Flowers were coming out of my ears
That day happiness was overflowing
From each and every one of the corners
That day
