Anthology
To love you I need a reason
and it's hard to believe that it doesn't exist;
One more so that this love
can waste itself in this heart.
To think of what they say...
that the years are wise.
Pain is still felt...
because all the time I spent near you;
left its thread, woven in me.
And I learned to take from Time...
those seconds that you let me see the sky
to it's profound depths.
Next to you...
I think I gained a few pounds
with so many sweet kisses given.
You developed my...
sense of smell and because of you
I learned to like cats.
You freed my feet from the pavement, so...
the both of us could fly away free for a moment.
But you forgot one last detail...
because I have yet to learn how to live
without your love.
I learned the significance of a rose.
You taught me how to tell tall tales...
so I could see you at hours
that weren't so appropriate
and to replace words with a gaze.
And it was because of you that I wrote...
more than one hundred songs.
I even forgave your mistakes and
I discovered a thousand ways to kiss.
And because of you, I know...
... what it is to love...
...what it is to love....
