Cardo o Ceniza
"How will my skin be next to your skin?
How will my skin be next to your skin...
thistle...ash? How... how will it be?
As I will merge my space in front of yours
How will your body be as it courses through me?
And as my heart... it is in death
And my heart, it is in death
My voice will brake off when when it ceases
When I cannot whisper into your ear
And my salivating mouth will burn...
From the thirst that will burn me if you kiss me...
From the thirst that will burn me if you kiss me...
How will the groaning and the cry be?
When my life escapes through yours?
And as the lethargy which I will succumb to..
When my dreams fall asleep between your dream
I will have to take short naps
My matting awakens with your rivers
But, but ...
But how will my awakenings be like?
How will my awakenings be like?
How will my awakenings be like?
Every time I wake up ashamed
Every time I wake up ashamed
So much love... and I'm ashamed
So much love... and I'm ashamed..."
Lyrics by Chabuca Granda
