Now it’s time to tell the story
of the last piece of my life.
I left my family, left my friends
to follow my own path.
I left my job, left my woman,
that’s the hardest thing I’ve done.
I packed her look, my tears, my guitar,
but I didn’t take it all.
Then I arrived to this city
where the wind takes to the bone.
Where, the people, they don’t know you
and they don’t care who you are.
I’ve found a place to spend my nights
though I can’t get no sleep.
My cigarette’s dying in my hand
and she’s not here with me.
Won’t lose my longing, won’t lose my faith.
But, love, I need you with me when the rain comes back again.
Won’t lose my clearness though sometimes I get drunk.
I need you more than ever ‘couse my strength is comin’ down.
Won’t lose my longing, won’t lose my faith.
But, love, I need you with me when the rain comes back again.
Won’t lose my clearness though sometimes I get drunk.
I need you more than ever ‘couse my strength is comin’ down.
It seems that all is empty around me
and my look has turned cold.
Don’t wanna beg for no one’s help,
I’ll try to make it all alone.
I’m just a reflex in a mirror
that slowly’s turning mad.
I’d wish I see my face again
and feel my strength is comin’ back.
