If you forget me...
I want you to know one thing
You know how this is
If I look at the crystal moon
At the red branch
Of the slow autumn at my window
If I touch near the fire
The impalpable ash
Of the wrinkled body of the log
And everything carries me to you
As if everything that exists
From this light melts
Where little boats
That sail to those eyes of yours
That wait for me
Well now, if little by little
You stop loving me
And I shall stop loving you
Little by little
If suddenly you forget me
Do not look for me
For I shall already have
Forgotten you
If you think it wrong and mad
The wind of banners
That passes through my life
And you decide to leave me
At the shore of the heart
Where I have roots
Remember that on that day
At that hour
I shall lift my arms
And my roots will set off
To seek another land
But if each day, each hour
You feel that you're destined for me
With implacable sweetness
Each day a flower climbs up to your lips
To say make me
Ah, my love, ah, my home
In me, all that fire is repeated
In me nothing is extinguished
Or forgotten
My love feeds on your life
Be alive
And as long as you live
It will be in your arms
Where I live in mine
