Tierra adentro

oh yes, it goes away
it's taken by the water
from crying so much
it rolls down the slope
from crying so much
it rolls down the slope

when did I see her
I saw her growing
and from looking so much
she starts to fade away
and just by looking
she starts to fade away

drop by drop minutes fall
the time runs towards the sea, I go inland
if time runs towards the sea, I go inland

it's not worth waiting, everything in its time
watching the sunrise, we are dying
the hourglass doesn't turn around
grain by grain it passed, passed and breaks
