Deuda pendiente

Tom Milsom

IOU

You wrote letters to our friends
So that we could all pretend
You were able to defend my love

Complex lines in verdigris
I owe you and you owe me
But I'm sure we won't agree, my love

And all the walls were falling down
Where all the words you wrote were found
And all the silent space around
Was suddenly alive

We took them as we took our leave
Filling pockets, filling sleeves
We were little more than thieves, my love

And we read every single note
And every thought and every quote
I cried at every word you wrote, my love

Deuda pendiente

Escribiste cartas a nuestros amigos
Para que todos pudiéramos fingir
Que podías defender mi amor

Líneas complejas en verdigris
Te debo y me debes
Pero estoy seguro de que no estaremos de acuerdo, mi amor

Y todas las paredes se derrumbaban
Donde todas las palabras que escribiste fueron encontradas
Y todo el espacio silencioso alrededor
De repente cobró vida

Las tomamos al partir
Llenando bolsillos, llenando mangas
Éramos poco más que ladrones, mi amor

Y leímos cada nota
Y cada pensamiento y cada cita
Lloré con cada palabra que escribiste, mi amor
