Por Toda una Vida
Amaia Montero
For a Lifetime
Cotton clouds.
Drops suffering from the heat.
A room, a place of self-destruction.
Afternoons in the garden.
Sighs for something better.
Mothers leaving, heartbroken with pain.
For your heart, a smile...
For your freedom, the strength of the sea...
Tonight I’ll sing for a lifetime
madness is fading, falling asleep.
Tonight I’ll sing for a lifetime
Tonight I’ll forget that I was lost,
that I was overtaken by the shadow of the sun.
Cardboard eyes, tears that drown the emotion.
Resignation, a battle in the blazing sun.
Dissatisfaction clouding my reason,
All the obsession for just a bit of courage.
For your heart, a smile.
For your freedom, the strength of the sea.
Tonight I’ll sing for a lifetime
madness is fading, falling asleep.
Tonight I’ll sing for a lifetime
Tonight I’ll forget that I was lost.
Today I want to play the whole game,
today I’ll give up on lost time.
Tonight I’ll sing for a lifetime
madness is fading, falling asleep.
Tonight I’ll sing for a lifetime
Tonight I’ll forget that I was lost,
Tonight I’ll sing, tonight I’ll sing for you and for me.
