SONG FOR MY DEATH

There was a time which was beautiful
and I was truly free,
I stored all my dreams
in crystal castles.
Little by little I grew up,
and my love fables
started to vanish
like soap bubbles.

I will find you one morning
inside my room
and you will make the bed
for two.

It's a long road
when you're looking back,
you cross frontiers
and maybe you don't realize.
Hold on tight
because before getting there
a thousand old folks held on
but were taken just the same.

I will find you one morning
inside my room
and you will make the bed
for two.

I'd like to know your name,
your place, your address,
and if you've gotten a telephone,
your number just as well.
I beg you to let me know
if you come to pick me up,
it's not that I'm afraid of you,
it's just I want to get ready.

I will find you one morning
inside my room
and you will make the bed
for two.
