Without you, I was tormented and then I sought you
along the paths of memory...
and there, in a far distant corner, you were fretting about coming back
and escaping this hell...
Your loveless life was attracted to me,
with its misery and silence...
and we covered over a past that was struggling to want to return...

And it was you,
you were the one who brightened my loneliness,
who transformed into a craziness
and into a horror, my quiet hours...
You...
My sad tango, it was you,
and there is no one else but you
in my destiny...
And today,
you have stepped away from my path.
And it's already too late
to come back crying,
and to hold back the anguish
that though faded
hurts all the more....

The light was torn apart and my voice silenced
that night without words...
when I saw you had no soul
and me, always by your side,
like something cast aside...
your were attracted by the shadow of another love
and another voice that was calling out to you...
and you plungedme into a past that was struggling to want to return...
