To say goodbye
and turn your back on love
will make you cry
To turn your back on blue eyes
with a titanical sunk look
is sincerely impossible
and impossibly sincere
It's Roberta Flack, Mario Benedetti
Pablo Picasso and Paul Gaugin crying at a funeral
the funeral of hope
To give deaf ears to a broken voice
with a Callas sudden sigh
is the darkness all around me
in a deadly embrace
It's Nat King Cole, Vincent Van Gogh and Chavela Vargas
Arthur Rimbaud and Salvador Dali carrying the hearse
the hearse of love
That is why to say goodbye
and turn my back on you
will make me die.
