Son Pedacitos de Sol
Marta Gómez
They're Little Pieces of Sun
They're little pieces of sun
Snippets of light, bits of love
They're little bits of wind
The water, the silence, drizzle in bloom
They're little pieces of sun
Snippets of light, bits of love
They're the eyes of a child
That strange sparkle, fascination
Wonder of the sky
Without guilt or fear, mirrors of God
Oh, how much I would give
Just for one day to see again
The world like a playground
A storybook, a tree to climb
They're little pieces of sparkle
Sounds of bugs, the siesta, the heat
They're scents of orange blossom
Grandma's caresses, sugar on bread
They're the eyes of a child
That strange sparkle, fascination
Wonder of the sky
Without guilt or fear, mirrors of God
Oh, how much I would give
Just for one day to see again
The world like a playground
A storybook, a tree to climb
Oh, if I close my eyes
I see her face again, hear her voice
And once more in the yard
She kisses my forehead and I’m me again
