In the dock of San Blas

She said goodbye to her love
He left on a boat in the dock of San Blas
He swore he'd come back, and soaked in tears she swore she'd be waiting for him
A thousand moons went by and she was always at the dock, waiting
Many afternoons nested
They nested in her hair and her lips.
 
She always wore the same dress
in case he came back so he would recognize her
The crabs would bite her
clothes, her sadness, and her hope
And time slipped away
And her eyes were filled with sunrises
And she fell in love with the sea
And her body was rooted to the dock
 
Alone, alone in the oblivion
Alone, alone with her spirit
Alone, alone with her love, the sea
Alone in the dock of San Blas
 
Her hair whitened
but no ship would bring her love back
in the town they would call her
they would call her the crazy woman of the San Blas dock
And one April afternoon
they tried to transfer her to the asylum
but no one was able to catch her
And they never from the sea separated her again
 
Alone, alone in the oblivion
Alone, alone with her spirit
Alone, alone with her love, the sea
Alone in the dock of San Blas
 
She stayed, she stayed, alone, alone
She stayed, she stayed with the sun and the sea
She stayed there, she stayed there until the end
She stayed there, she stayed on the dock of San Blas
 
Alone, alone, alone...
