Little Marie, I talk about you
Because with your little voice
Your little manias,
You poured upon my life
Thousands of roses.
Little fury, I fight for you,
So that in ten thousand years
We find ourselves protected,
Under a sky as pretty
As thousands of roses.
I come from the sky
And the stars between them
Talk only about you,
Of a musician
Who makes his hands play
Upon a piece of wood,
Of their love
Bluer than the sky around.
Little Marie, I’m waiting for you numbed
Under a tile of your roof.
The cold night wind
Sends back to me the ballad
I had written for you.
Little fury, you say that life
Is a ring on every finger
Under the Florida sun.
Me, my pockets are empty
And my eyes cry out of cold
I come from the sky
And the stars between them
Talk only about you,
Of a musician
Who makes his hands play
Upon a piece of wood,
Of their love
Bluer than the sky around.
In the darkness of your street,
Little Marie, do you hear me?
I’m only waiting for you to leave…
I come from the sky
And the stars between them
Talk only about you,
Of a musician
Who makes his hands play
Upon a piece of wood,
Of their love
Bluer than the sky around.
