Song for Elias

Meant to meet you but I couldn't stay
 'Til now I never knew how life tears you away
 Now I wait for the springtime in Spain
 My love
 A beautiful being so sad and so strong
 You gave me a story, you gave me a song
 When he played his guitar, she would weep
 My love
 So one rainy day that spirit took flight
 She made him a cap full of magic and might
 For his birthday to rule a great stage
 Perform 'til old age
 My love
 And why did you never arrive?
 When we, before you left I saw tears in your eye
 And your mama just told me you (ooh)
 My love

 ♪
 To state he was born, boy got rhythm within
 Was to put it so mildly, her crying face grinned
 It would spring from all fibres of humanly everythings
 My love
 Nothing sure, but that love never reasons
 Now the world might have lost all its springtimes
 And all of the seasons are bleak without you
