Mi Código Postal

I've returned to the city, the one that saw me born
I've already returned, nothing is the same
I remember it very well

And yet I am
Just another foreigner
Because you, because you are no longer here
No one needs to tell me
I can see it in the city

The leaves of our park
No longer wait for autumn
It's full of signs
Prohibiting everything
When you were here, they weren't like this
At least I never saw them
Our spirit was free
Didn't believe in the impossible
No matter how many streets I walk
I don't get anywhere
I discovered while wandering
That having a destiny
Is more of a reason than
The where and when
How could I take so long
To realize something so clear

Only where you are is my home
And the light of your gaze is my zip code
Only where you are is my home
Only where you are

It seems like yesterday
The day I left
And more than 20 years have passed
But I still remember well
The smell of your skin
And the honey of your lips
But you, but you are no longer here
And I've heard what they say in the neighborhood
They don't believe you'll come back

They say you're still painting
I still remember that portrait
You made of us when we were kids
With a six and a four
And then in university
You asked me to pose again
You put on pearl earrings
And your shoes
We couldn't stop laughing
And I was so embarrassed
Although I know I would have done
Anything for you
No matter how crazy and absurd it seemed
Because it was in that moment, that exact moment
That I realized

Only where you are is my home
And the light of your gaze is my zip code
Only where you are is my home
Only where you are

And it all ended
Before it began
Because you can't cover the sun with one finger
Maybe in another life
You could love me
Because in this one I know
You've only come to fly

Only where you are is my home
And the light of your gaze is my zip code
Only where you are is my home
Only where you are
