APRENDIENDO A VOLAR
María José Llergo
Learning to Fly
I see all the peaks, the summits, from my window
So far from me that I haven't dreamed of reaching them
Flag planted, flag planted
On my back
If every time I win I lose myself
What kind of poison do I deserve?
I see my embroidered obituary, my embroidered obituary
In the sky
I’m learning to fly
I've taken to the skies
To be able to touch you even if just for a moment
When the sky calls for you
I've learned to fly
I cut the air with my fingers
Like the birds cut
My sighs with their flight
So you can stop crying
The clouds lay a
Blanket of white sheets
And immaculate handkerchiefs
So you can stop crying
The clouds lay a
Blanket of white sheets
And immaculate handkerchiefs
A white thread connects my voice to your soul
The stars in the sky are little moons dancing
My embroidered obituary, my embroidered obituary
Across the galaxy
I’m learning to fly
I've taken to the skies
To be able to touch you even if just for a moment
I've learned to fly
I cut the air with my fingers
Like the birds cut
My sighs with their flight
I’m learning to fly
I've taken to the skies
To be able to touch you even if just for a moment
When the sky calls for you
I've learned to fly
I cut the air with my fingers
Like the birds cut
My sighs with their flight
