Love balled up like a drying apple
Because it was bitten in one go
The clenched fist that keeps under the cool water
A heart as small as a pebble

The body that pushes inside the jacket
And that hurts you underneath
I was already standing there
In this last corner that remains to me
Hoping you would one day pass by our house again

The wine that intoxicates like a bubble of tenderness
And that we drink like a jewel

The worn taste of a youthful memory
That we pull from a candy machine

And all the things that come and we neglect
Because we wouldn't give ten cents for them.
Me, I was still standing there
In this last corner that remains to me
Hoping you would one day pass by our house again

And in the crowd of those who hurry
To be happier above all
I clench my fists to keep under the cool water
A heart as small as a pebble
