Cansado

Here I am once again, on the corner of this block
With sweat, sex, and the hustle of cigars
Between the street and the rum, life’s a bit hectic
I’m pedaling through time, moving ahead
But I keep going back, always to the same side

[chorus:]
Trying to live
Fighting my love, fighting, you know babe?
Trying to live
Dreaming my love, dreaming
Babe, it ain't easy to laugh, in the city of the brave
Life’s a bit tough here, it’s nothing strange
I’m out here searching for my luck, looking for bread with my hands
Money’s tight, my girl, rock and roll is way too expensive

[chorus]

Hey man, I’m moving forward, just looking for a different way
There’s nothing but your people, you just gotta tell them how you feel
I come without regrets, to shout to the winds what I feel
I never stop dreaming, come with me, come on over
And you’ll dream with me... without looking back
And you’ll come with me... without looking back
And you’ll fly with me... without looking back
And I’ll die with you... without looking back
