Lyrics
The door trembles gently, like wood tired of praying.
On the table remains your distant scent, and a sun that no longer wants to enter.
I walk barefoot through memories, each step a knot I can't untie.
And the wind carries away your name, like sand from my words.
[Pre-Chorus – growing, audience murmurs]
Since you left, the road seems longer than yesterday.
And this melancholy has the color of true dreams.
I tried to follow you with my heart, but fate has changed direction.
[Solo behind the voice – audience listens but reacts to the higher phrases]
(soft slide, phrases V→III / VI–V–III)
[Verse 2 – more open, audience present]
The night smells of rain and smoke, of songs I haven't finished.
Your smile is a fading lighthouse, a memory left clean.
And every streetlight along the avenue asks me why I let you go.
The stars pretend to shine, but they know you'll never knock again.
[Chorus – explosive, audience explodes with you]
Since you left, the road seems longer than yesterday.
And this melancholy has the color of true dreams.
I tried to keep you close, but time has chosen another direction.
🎸🔥 LIVE CENTRAL SOLO (loud audience, applause and screams at the end)
(wide slide, responding harmonica, emotional climax)
[Bridge – fragile voice, quieter audience]
Maybe one day I'll laugh at this, maybe the wind will bring me the rest.
But tonight all I have is a tired guitar
and a blues falling from the bench.
[Final Chorus – open voice, audience sings and applauds]
Since you left, the world has lost a little light.
And this nostalgia is the only thing that drives me.
If you'll come back, I really don't know...
meanwhile I sing to stay whole.
[Outro – harmonica + slide, big final applause]
