Sitting and staring (Country rock ballad)

[Verse] Sitting and staring at nothing in particular, the hours devoured my bones. There in an old bar, I think it was, where the light doesn't penetrate even in spring, I saw her eyes watching from outside, and carrying her scent like a shoulder bag. In that seedy old bar, I found her, by chance or perhaps by luck. [Pre-Chorus] I confessed every last secret to her, and she wanted a quick kiss to be a sure step, a strong step, a sincere step. [Guitar oly] [Chorus] Oh, how sweet, how sweet her gaze, and how sweet her candied mouth. Oh, what a shine, what a shine in her hair, hiding secrets in her neck. Hmmmm, secrets in her neck. [Verse] My hand found hers quickly, and we left that dark place. I grew accustomed to her kisses, her breath, her name, her voice like an instrument, her graceful figure in motion, and the warmth that nourished me. At the perfect moment, without delay, the shadows of dusk arrived. [Pre-Chorus] And she told me, "This house is losing height," and she left with my love, following the wind, while I remained, unable to take a step, and gazing at her silence. [Instrumental] [Chorus] Oh, how bitter, how bitter the gaze, and how bitter the taste it left me with. Oh, how great, how great the agony, hiding secrets night and day. Hmm, secrets night and day. [Verse] I cursed that moment, that place, and also my existence, without ceasing. But by talking to myself, I got used to living in the abyss left by neglect or selfishness, perhaps her love was just a mirage. Her photos, I neither look at them nor touch them my crazy self has even taken control [Pre-Chorus] And I've returned to the smells of that bar there I found her love, her "I love yous" and there too I forget her little by little if I can [Guitar only] [Chorus] Oh, how bitter, dark, and treacherous all the hours pass before me Oh, how little and how much remains in this bar that yearns for your past Hmm, all your past
