Valentina

Everything here sounds like a lullaby, but without the excessive sweetness. The words are simple, almost childlike, but they convey a tenderness that cannot be faked. The repeated ‘Valentina’ falls softly on the ear, like a warm blanket, and together with the music creates the feeling that the night ceases to be disturbing and becomes a place where you can simply close your eyes and trust the silence.

The melody seems to rock in time with your breathing: slightly slower than your heartbeat, slightly faster than sleep. And there are no loud promises in these lines - only a quiet confidence that love can be calm, ordinary and real. The kind that doesn't need proof, but simply exists.
