I caught you in the summers sigh
Where herons dived,
against the sky
of Colbalt blue
just like your eyes
you voice is like a lullabyes.
Across the sunset sands
you'd walk
full of the day
you'd talk and talk
and holding hands
you watch the sun
descend as night begins its run
Up on the stage you start to sing
Your Spanish words
have a certain ring
You dance the samba
turn me round
To take me up to higher ground
And all this time
you knew would pass
Like getting to the bottom of a cocktail glass
Your final wave
your smile left here
No signs of pain
no little tear
It was what it was
no atmosphere
is left within
this stratosphere.
I checked the mail
you never wrote
The only lump was in my throat
I played "Chan Chan"
It made me smile
For you came back a little while.
