There was a time, she said

There was a time, she said

When cobbled streets were wet and

My footsteps to your door reflected more

Than my feet and the underneath of my red dress

Tak, Tak, Tak

There was a time, she said

When the smell of dirt was being freed by rain

And it made angry ants move animals, plants and

Made us to jump

Ay, Ay, Ay

There was a time, she said

When you foolishly collected clothes drying out in the dark of night

And I heard my name from your lips invoked

The ants grew angry at your feet

Oof, Oof, Oof

There was a time, she said

When the angry ants were no match for me,

Nor my hands, nor my feet

There was a time.

Hubo un tiempo, ella dijo
