Timbuktu |
| On the roof chimneys grin |
| Smoking their pipes like bitter winds forever |
| There’s nothing now |
| But broken glass |
| Shot to the touch |
| Nothing lasts |
| Like Romeo dressed in rags |
| I’m dancing like them |
| To the ring of the bell |
| Night is here ashes fall down |
| I’m waiting for you |
| Like a rose on a ground in Timbuktu |
| Afternoon my arms are filled emptiness |
| My heart is stilled forever |
| Flowers sway between the cracks |
| Laughing like kids from the side of the tracks |
| Where love will chant |
| And saxophones cried like the wind |
| From the top of the hill |
| Night is here ashes come down |
| I’m waiting, waiting for you |
| Like a rose on the ground in Timbuktu |
| You will pass by |
| As my hand trembles |
| Tea cup falls to the floor |
