Un Minuto
Callejeros
One Minute
I was pumped like a king on the streets
never having left my neighborhood until now.
I was working out a messy throat,
it was a joke, it was life or a twist of fate.
I was starting to ask myself strange things
what do people look for when someone sings alone?
Maybe it’s the need to not feel like nobody
I’m just one of them and even less at home.
Life drew a smile on my face
and in a sad minute, wiped it away like it was nothing.
Oh me, oh you,
oh all of us...
I was playing to stretch my only dream
my blood waking up in the twilight of the day.
I was debating between glory and stumbling,
wondering if I was a good lover, stormy, streetwise.
I was saying goodbye to old sorrows in life,
I was discovering the value of sweetness,
wondering if I was passionate or just a fool for trouble,
wondering if I had substance or was just hot air.
Life drew a smile on my face,
and in a sad minute, wiped it away like it was nothing.
Oh me, oh you,
oh all of us...
In a land of wounds, where they never heal,
we all sleep together on new sorrows.
The moon goes into eclipse and the sun is left alone,
and the old maze struggles to open the door.
Life drew a smile on my face
and in a sad minute, wiped it away like it was nothing.
Oh me, oh you, oh all of us...
