My tactic is to look at you
To learn the way you are
To love you the way you are.

My tactic is to talk to you
and listen to you
To build with words
An indestructible bridge.

My tactic is to be frank
And to know you are frank
And that we don't sell pretenses
to each other
So that between us
There won't be a curtain or chasm.

My strategy is instead
More profound and more simple
My strategy is
That someday
I don't know how or
With what pretext
At last you will need me.
