about

"This one starts with a poem by Pablo Neruda, an ugly man who loved beautiful women. I tried to get the Chilean accent just right, let's see how I did! This one was done for all the romance I renounced for thinking that ultimately man is incompatible with woman, so the answer to the riddle is simply, everything may go wrong, but, 'I'll See You Again!.' In the end of the song I say, 'I see birds flying South, it's from Winter that they run, not from a friend!' Chemistry between man and woman is programmed biologically, friendship is a triumph of the soul and wisdom."

- Eron Falbo

lyrics

"I could write the saddest verses tonight
Write, for example, that the night is starry and the heavenly bodies shiver from our distance.
The night wind spins in the sky and sings…"

- Pablo Neruda


I'll See You Again

In a battle of words
That I thought were absurd
At the time.
You gave me your hand
And said you'd understand
You were not mine.

A lie from your mouth,
But the truth from your tongue
I see birds flying south,
It's from the winter that they run
Not from a friend...
I'll see you again

You sat inside my home
And I offered you a lonesome
Time with me.
Yet again you chose to speak
But I think you were too weak
For destiny.

A lie in the air
But the truth inside our minds
As I struggled to compare
Your enigmatic signs
You continued to contend
But I'll see you again.

And then that treacherous smile
That would keep a boy beguiled
For his whole life,
Has made me a rose's thorn,
It has warmed for me
The butter of my knife.

It has made me a man
Who can love you all the same.
With the serpent you have danced
But I know you are not to blame.
You have been sent...
I'll see you again

Your defense was for love
For there is nothing above
But a trap.
Your defense is the fence
That I sense will commence
To collapse.

When I put on the mask
That you’ve taught us all to wear
Without words you'll be at last.
With that innocent stare,
You'll still pretend,
And I'll still see you again.

In a battle of words
the coward came in third
In a race of two.
Yes, retired in his chamber
Like some Joseph with no manger
He would drool.

A lie from his mouth
but the truth from his tongue
I see the birds flying south,
It's from the winter that they run
Not from a friend...
