My love arrived so late
_____
And my song drifted off
_____
The thistles gave no sign
And the wood didn't creak
_____
But what a lovely house
_____
It was dressed in portraits
_____
But the story that was written
_____
On cotton tiptoes
And another light in my heart
_____
Our story was beautiful
_____
I'll keep it while you sleep
'Cause even love can't believe
_____
That you threw it away like that
_____
If you don't burn for me anymore
If the heart wanted it that way
_____
Go, 'cause I need to cry in peace
_____
And with every step you take
I was madness, I was courage
_____
I was sadness and I was splendor
_____
Everything that made me love you
_____
I'll keep, and without rancor
I build my fort in misfortune
Like I've done so many times
_____
'Cause even love can't believe
_____
If you don't burn for me anymore
_____
If the heart wanted it that way
_____
Go, 'cause I need to cry in peace
And with every step you take
_____
Go, 'cause I need to cry in peace
And with every step you take
