Como Tu Y Yo
José Luis Perales
Like You And Me
You can see it
strolling through the park
attached to a faithful dog
lost in the silence
of a poem
or the noise of a workshop
You can see it
fighting for life
putting its skin in
or singing its song
on a corner
or in the nights
in the warmth of a woman
It knows how to smile
and also dream
walk happily
in the darkness
invent a sun
or cross the sea
and in the warmth
of a bonfire sing
Chorus
It knows how to share
and also love
knows about pain
and loneliness
like you and me
it fights to reach
the goal of a dream
You can see it
whistling down the street
or in an old cafe
thinking that life smiles at him
and there is so much to learn
You can see it
stealing from a piano
a love song
or imagining the faces
of those who love him
and that some night
the wind erased
It knows the pleasure
of living in peace
knows the value
of freedom
like you and me
every day goes
nervously checking the clock
Chorus
