I am cold
When the cold and the smoke of a cigarette sometimes manage to create a story...

I am cold
but I stay still
without even trying
to put on my jacket
I light a cigarette
and inhale the smoke slowly
without knowing for sure
why do I repeat this rite
that burns me
between its threads
I think of you
I think of me
covered by the cold that stirs me
I think of you
I think of me
The streets empty with the breath of winter
while the leaves wander
putting upside down the order that existed
and while I smoke
time seems a friend
who sat down to chat with me
of your silence and mine

@MoraAmaroLaLoba - beautiful song. I miss and not miss smoking. some of my deepest thoughts happened when I smoked. and time does seem to suspend on every drag.

As always, really strong mood and atmosphere, almost cinematic.
Self-reflective and honest, almost raw.
I love the music on this one too.
Wonderful work.

My father was not a smoker, and I loved imitating his movements when he brought the cigarette to his mouth, inhaled the smoke, and exhaled it. It was a gesture that captivated me... Chocolate cigarettes helped me perfect my imitation, hahaha. And then came real tobacco... I smoked everything, blond and black, and there were times when I smoked too much... I remember that everyone seemed to smoke, hahah. You walked into places and the smoke was the first thing that greeted you when you opened the door...
I remember an American series, Nad nen, what a crazy social portrait!!! And how accurate!!! Well, we come from that world. I miss smoking. Besides being a tic that filled certain moments, I liked the taste of it in my mouth and throat, and exhaling it slowly, enjoying every last bit of its smoke... And to think... Yes, it was a great helper. But that only happens with some poisons; they're nice, but they kill. @bhengen

Qué bonito!!! So glad you liked the music!!! I like it too here @RainyDayMan and appreciate a lot your comment.
I struggled for hours putting together each song. I don't like them all, of course, but this one in particular I like the way it turned out.
The lyrics are a translation of a poem of mine in Spanish, which I also set to music, although I like the arrangement better with the English song, even though the Spanish song had some interesting parts.
