Madre Tierra
Avalanch
Mother Earth
So much suffering
And tender at the same time
Soul of a woman
And body too.
An old tree is
Broken for not giving in
To a cruel wind
That keeps it from dying on its feet.
So much baggage to let go
And the shore feels so far
You forgot how to breathe
To give life some air.
And today this clumsy inspiration
Can't express what's inside me
My heart doesn't beat anymore
My chest tightens in front of you.
Mother Earth, come
Today it's my turn
To make you happy
If you could see
All those things that
You've made me feel.
Mother Earth, come
If I could just once
Make you laugh
Mother Earth, come
I wish I could fill you with good
And I don't know how to do it
Mother Earth, come.
On the shore it's waiting
For a sign
A bottle, a note
The tide will say.
Her weathered skin
Hides her little faith
Nothing to gain
And nothing to lose.
How much more love can I give you
To soothe this wound of mine.
And today this clumsy inspiration
Can't express what's inside me
My heart doesn't beat anymore
My chest tightens in front of you.
Mother Earth, come
Today it's my turn
To make you happy
If you could see
All those things that
You've made me feel.
Mother Earth, come
If I could just once
Make you laugh
Mother Earth, come
I wish I could fill you with good
And I don't know how to do it
Mother Earth, come.
