Un Instante Antes
Jorge Drexler
A Moment Before
You signaled me that I should have understood
Like that new gesture of fixing your hair
You looked as if watching the rain
A moment before taking flight
You returned to your course as a shooting star
With your vanishing point in the sky
I think you were already floating maybe
A moment before taking flight
You were already getting wet in another thaw
A moment before taking flight
Not all the lines of the Equator
Nor the fear and its many hooks
Every argument was losing value
A moment before taking flight
The river changes and changes the thirst
You had read it in your longing
It was already written long before
The moment before taking flight
You were already looking at me from another sky
A moment before taking flight
