Asilo
Jorge Drexler
Asylum
Give me a night of asylum, in your lap
Tonight, for example, let's leave the world outside
Open your arms, close them with me inside
Just a few hours and then when dawn breaks I'll make coffee
And I will have taken this cloud to another sky of passing clouds
If the dream loses footing, slips, hangs by a thread
I prefer a whole sleepless night, to have my soul in suspense
Give me a night of asylum
Give me a night of asylum
Give me a respite
I will give you what I have
This love that I can't explain
The years go by, and it continues behind time
I want you to talk to me about time
To undress as if it were something ordinary
As if seeing you naked didn't stun me so systematically
Your skin is unknown to me, always leaves me uneasy
I prefer to lick my wounds afterwards than for your love to lose its edge
Give me a night of asylum
Give me a night of asylum
Give me a night of asylum
Give me a night of asylum
Give me a night of asylum
Give me a night of asylum
Give me a night of asylum
Give me a night of asylum
