Love's Tango

We wrap ourself lightly in the Fall
my love, my beautiful lady
Rusty and golden leaves fall
on our silver and tired temples.

So many rustles hide under our barefoot walk,
So many prayers we had, down in the valleys or on mountains top,
We left so many traces in the stars, in the sun, through storms, through rains,
So many wonderful seasons have passed, beautiful lady over us.

We shared the burdens and the joy,
The glass, the spoon, and the plate,
We also shared wounds, tears, and pains,
Failures and successes, smiles, and sweet pleasures.

It's raining slowly with huge splashes that urge us to dance, my beautiful lady,
I kiss a tear that's running down your soft white cheeks,
and we continue, as it is written for us, the tango of love in two.
