The way to love your
and let me love you.
The yes with which you surrendered
is silence. Your kisses
lips offer me know because I
the kisses.
Mai words, hugs
me say that you existed
that you loved me: never .
tell me that white sheets,
maps, mobile, omens;
you, no.
And I'm hugging you
without asking anything for fear
that is not true
which you live, and love me. And I'm embraced
you without looking and without touching you.
Why should never discover
with questions or caresses
the immense loneliness
d ' only be love you.

To you we come only
attreverso you, I'll wait.
I certainly know where they are,
my city, the street name
with whom everyone calls me.
But I do not know where I was with you.
There I've brought you.
How could I learn
the way if you did not watch that much,
if the path were your steps, and his term
the moment that you stopped it? What could be more
besides you offer, that you looked at me? But now that
exile, that the absence
be where you are!
aspect, the trains pass,
the case, looks. I probably would lead
where ever I was.
But I do not want the new heaven.
I want to stay where they are already.
With you, come back. What great news
come again
repeat, never the same, that wonder
endless!
And as long as you're coming I'll be on the threshold
flight, dreams
of contrails, motionless.
Cause I know where I was
no wings, no wheels or sails
lead.
They all have lost his way.
Cause I know where I was
leads only (which I love)
