Abrazos de Cristal

So many years, had to live
It was written in his destiny
Things that always happen to people but not to you
And never matter too much until they happen
Other people's problems will be boring topics
That slip away, that last drop that runs out with the hours

That speck in the eye that enters when you cry
Because you miss, you don't value what you have
Until you lose it and it doesn't come back, you understand me
That's why tell me now that you have me that you love me
Said the mother to the son in a hug about to break
If they were made of glass in a thousand tiny pieces
So many years had to live, it was written

But father, tired of love
From a housewife woman without dresses
He forgot about those eyes and shared moments
Disgusted by those children
And the routine screams melted
By the noise of heavy conformism
Yes, he looked for his place among failure
And alcoholism between himself and pessimism
And a thousand issues being unemployed
Ships were looking for that port

But the lighthouse was already dead
Like that Moon that survives the day in this village
That parades conceitedly so some fool can see her
Out of place is how she felt
Without her navy blue background and without the shine of her star
That afternoon, she went to bed earlier than usual
She didn't hear the phone or the doorbell
She dreamed of being free and having a heart to be stolen
She dreamed that she didn't grow up and would forever be young
50 and something winters, full of dry leaves

And her 25 freckles summed up in a dream she would never wake up from
No matter how many roosters crowed, sadness embraced her
And the son who cried like you if it happened to me
Antonio or Sara, guilty
That I am alive and that I write what I write

That I always love them, as I have always wanted
As I have always wanted, as I have always wanted
As I have always wanted, as I have always wanted
As I have always wanted, as I have always wanted
