One day you will go back 
To one of those familiar places 
We used to go frequently 
And sit down again on the same bench 
That still clearly preserves our names 
Encrypted inside a heart 
Now, motionless and brokenhearted  
Perhaps deeply thinking about me 
But I will be not be there 
Like before, kissing you passionately 
For I have been gone forever 
Gone with the wind 
 
As proof, my dear  
I left my footprints behind 
Deeply hidden in your heart and mind 
And the red rose one day you gave me 
I threw it in the wild river 
Long time ago and by now 
It should be already gone for always 
 
You turned my heart into a stone 
And gave me no other choice 
But to run away from you 
And move forward facing the Sun 
Where I will find a new horizon 
That will lead me to the right one 
The one who will love me with great passion 
The one now in my dream 
But one day will become my reality
