When I looked at you for the first time, the poppies were blooming
Your gaze was the most beautiful of that morning as it was setting in
I asked for nothing, it said it all, without fear, without dread
From then on, without knowing it, I kept you as my best song

I never stopped looking at you
Even though I pretended you were just one of us
With fate playing at just crossing paths to then separate us
Since then, in silence, engraved in my chest
In me, you'll always be

You walked slowly, without looking for me
Without thinking of running into me, yet I felt your presence
We didn't say words, we didn't make promises, but time stopped
And in that instant, love silently acknowledged us
It didn't arrive, nor did it say goodbye

You stayed there between days, years, names
And landscapes without a voice
No sigh carried your sensation, and no embrace your warmth
And though we didn't return to that place where it all began
I lived with you in every song, every afternoon, every sunset

You were a love without a written history
Without time, without direction
A true love that is not forgotten
Because there are glances that don't need words
Only to feel them deep in the soul

I didn't stop looking at you, not even when
I pretended to learn to forget
Not even when other names came, unable to take your place
You were the beginning, and you were home
And even if we never meet again
In me, you'll always be

You'll always be
In me
