Cançó del Dubte

A voice asked her what she'll be when she grows up?
My friend stayed quiet and smiled down
If only we could go back to that afternoon to ignite
And stop her just before she doubts for the first time!

When Dad asked what job will you find?
My friend, furious, tried not to cry
And her young mind went over the options
Her eyes were tired from searching every corner
But looking at it, the path doesn’t say if you’re heading for glory or failure

And we’d go out at night
Come on, we’ll do better tomorrow
While doubt watched us
And we felt it growing inside
Almost a decision
But it was doubt that played
With everything that was good
With everything that was good

If a nice guy asked her what the hell she wanted him to do
My friend hesitated and leaned against him
And fell asleep promising herself that tomorrow
She’d know how to be happy by his side
Poor things if you know the thrill of the
Kisses we share while doubting!

You’ve been staring at a meadow
Waiting for flowers to bloom
While doubt was killing them
You stayed up all night
Watching a body sleep
While doubt claimed
Everything that was good
Everything that was good

It’s past mid-morning
She touched me with hands
Full of chipped nails
She didn’t have much time
But she passed through the neighborhood
And wanted to tell me that now
She’s got it all figured out
My friend says she’s got it all figured out!
