ACROSS THE OCEAN [Intro] He took you away a wind that I didn't know how to stop, and now you're on the other side of the world, beyond the sea, beyond time, beyond all words that we couldn't tell each other. [Verse 1] You left with the wind of change, without knowing where it would take us, I stayed here, watching the sky get bigger between us. Behind an immense ocean your eyes are still there, those who once they knew how to find me in the dark without needing to search. I say to myself that it's over now, that life has chosen another path, but inside the heart a small corner remained where your name has never gone away. [Pre-Chorus] Who would have known that everything would end like this? We, so close that we lose our breath, us, so far away that we cannot touch each other. [Chorus] And I still think of you on the other side of the ocean, while life goes by and doesn't look back. I still think of you, even when I try to forget, because you left such deep traces that time cannot erase. I remember your eyes in mine, your lips touch mine, two souls that for an instant they met in the same dream. Now we are far away, and everything continues without us, but in some secret place of the heart I'm still there with you. [Verse 2] I try not to think about you when the evening falls slowly, when silence fills the room and every shadow seems to know your name. I learned to smile, to live the days without waiting for you, to look ahead as if I had never had your hands in mine. But there are memories who do not ask permission to return. Just one song, a light lit in the night, the scent of rain on the street, and you're here again. As if the distance had never existed. [Pre-Chorus] Maybe life is this: meet when you least expect it, love each other enough to leave a mark, and then learn to live with what can no longer return. [Chorus] And I still think of you on the other side of the ocean, while life goes by and doesn't look back. I still think of you, even when I try to forget, because you left such deep traces that time cannot erase. I remember your eyes in mine, your lips touch mine, two souls that for an instant they met in the same dream. Now we are far away, and everything continues without us, but in some secret place of the heart I'm still there with you. [Bridge] All wishes, all the dreams we had, they flew away behind a distant cloud. I watch them dissolve into the sky without knowing if they will return one day. Maybe we were just two people who arrived at the wrong time of one's life. Maybe we should have met just to know how great a love can be before the distance. And yet... if I close my eyes, I still feel your breath. [Final Chorus] And I still think of you when the night crosses the sea, when the wind changes direction and take away what I can't hold back. I still think of you, even if life goes on, even if every day teaches us to stay away. Because some people they do not remain in life, they remain in the soul. And you stayed there, in that little corner of my heart that no one has been able to reach anymore. Your eyes, your lips, that brief meeting of two souls who thought they had found a home. Now there is an ocean between us. And yet... **every time I look at the sky, I wonder if you too you are looking at the same moon.** [Outro] Life goes on. The days pass, the seasons change, dreams fade behind increasingly distant clouds. But you... you stay. Not next to me. Not here. But in that invisible point where the heart keeps what he never stopped loving.
