Anoche soñé contigo, pero esta vez fue distinto a las tantas otras veces. Las tantas otras veces tampoco era como yo quería, pero siempre tenía una parte de mí asumida ante eso, algo intercambiaba contigo, un par de palabras, pero luego desaparecías y a mí, a mí me parecía prudente.
Era de noche (en realidad toda esa parte del sueño, más que de noche era todo oscuro). Estaba en un casi tercer piso de alguna infraestructura y la cosa es que estaba en una habitación No había nada más que una jaula de pájaro, pero era redonda, como esas cosas donde corren los hamsters. Yo la miraba fijamente porque había un pájaro amarillo con verde enrredado entre las rejillas de la jaula, muerto, mutilado: como si hubiese dado demasiadas vueltas corriendo en esa jaula (corriendo, sí) y se le hubiera escapado de las 'patas' y se hubiera enrredado hasta triturarlo. Algo así.
Tú llegabas, con un abrigo largo negro cerrado, unos lentes negros y un sombrero negro, pero guantes blancos. Entrabas a la habitación, te acercabas a la jaula, tocabas con el borde de tu dedo índice lo que quedaba de rostro de ave y lo observaste. Me miraste a mí luego y algo me dijiste, te diste media vuelta y saliste. Yo te seguí.
Ibas subiendo escaleras hasta el último piso, que tenía un pasillo haca el borde con rejas, como un pasillo-balcón, largo, muy largo hacia el otro extremo. Subiendo las escaleras, al llegar había un señor sentado con los brazos cruzados, viejo, y yo le decía que íbamos a ver una cosita arriba y nos íbamos. (en realidad no íbamos a ver nada, fue una excusa porque sentí que nosotros no deberíamos estar ahí.)
Subir la escalera, llegar al piso, doblar a la izquierda, caminar, caminar, caminar, caminar, llegar a la punta, doblar a la izquierda nuevamente. Tú ibas adelante todavía, y yo atrás me quedaba cuando choqué con unas personas. Eran unos niños que tenían pinta algo turbia, y sólo chocaba contra ellos mientras intentaba avanzar. Veía cómo doblabas nuevamente a la izquiera y te perdías en un marco negro, fondo negro (no sé si era puerta, bajada, subida, no sé). Y yo me quedaba ahí, mirando ese espacio negro con 5 hombres detrás que finalmente eran niños vestidos de hombres y por suerte no iban a hacerme nada.
Tú te ibas.
¡bah! ya es abril... ha pasado el tiempo... esta vez, sí expresaré esto... viejo recuerdo, lugar lejano... y así.
"So we meet again!" and I offer my hand
All dry and English slow
And you look at me and I understand
Yeah it's a look I used to know
"Three long years... and your favourite man...
Is that any way to say hello?"
And you hold me... like you'll never let me go
"Oh c'mon and have a drink with me
Sit down and talk a while..."
"Oh I wish I could... and I will!
But now I just don't have the time..."
And over my shoulder as I walk away
I see you give that look goodbye...
I still see that look in your eye...
So dizzy Mr. Busy - Too much rush to talk to Billy
All the silly frilly things have to first get done
In a minute - sometime soon - maybe next time - make it June
Until later... doesn't always come
It's so hard to think "It ends sometime
And this could be the last
I should really hear you sing again
And I should really watch you dance"
Because it's hard to think
"I'll never get another chance
To hold you... to hold you... "
But chilly Mr. Dilly - Too much rush to talk to Billy
All the tizzy fizzy idiot things must get done
In a second - just hang on - all in good time - wont be long
Until later...
I should've stopped to think - I should've made the time
I could've had that drink - I could've talked a while
I would've done it right - I would've moved us on
But I didn't - now it's all too late
It's over... over
And you're gone..
I miss you I miss you I miss you
I miss you I miss you I miss you so much
But how many times can I walk away and wish "If only..."
But how many times can I talk this way and wish "If only..."
Keep on making the same mistake
Keep on aching the same heartbreak
I wish "If only..."
But "If only...."
Is a wish too late...
