The mantle that hid my moan
Was torn at last
Revealing plainly
For those who could read me
What I most sought to hide:
Nothing was enjoyable anymore
Better then to stay in my corner
Where I sowed a bunch of rosemary
As an excuse for my sorrow
But in the meantime
When I went to reap what I had planted
Our eyes met each other
And I forgot the reason for my disenchantment
All hope resides in you now
Even if that escapes reason itself
And while the heart is still barely redone
It pounds already accelerated in my chest
After all the heart has no memory
And it never learns
It just beats in the longing for a story
Of eternal love
Regardless of what comes from it
Even if in the end there is only pain
It’s easy if you don’t remember
But I’m not just heart
And in this fight
Between feeling and reason
Between forgetting and remembering
Between love and fear
I utterly surrender to that gaze of yours
That turned sorrow into enchantment
