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 |
