El Cuadrito

With a little piece of your heart
Plus a tiny bit of that tender love
With a pinch of sand from the sea
And the faint blue of dawn

Just like the ray of light that escapes
Little by little, announcing the morning
Just like the scent of the breeze that fills
The air those days drawing a December

That's how you are, my little one
A mix of sun and moon
Summer and spring
Full of mystery
My perfect dream, you
You take me to the world I want

With a little piece of your heart
Plus a tiny bit of that tender love
With a pinch of sand from the sea
And the faint blue of dawn

And the sky will be the canvas
And the brushes the wind
And the raindrops
The colors of my little painting

Then the night lent two stars
The earth gave its beauty and the scent of sap
The early morning gave me the oil with its color
And a wooden frame

That's how you are, my little one
A mix of sun and moon
Summer and spring
Full of mystery
My perfect dream, you
You take me to the world I want

With a little piece of your heart
Plus a tiny bit of that tender love
With a pinch of sand from the sea
And the faint blue of dawn

And the sky will be the canvas
And the brushes the wind
And the raindrops
The colors

Watercolor of your sweet honey
Of the cinnamon color of skin
A little painting I will draw
With the colors that your soul gives me

With a little piece of your heart
Plus a tiny bit of that tender love
With a pinch of sand from the sea
And the faint blue of dawn

And the sky will be the canvas
And the brushes the wind
And the raindrops
The colors of my little painting
