Seashells
You woke up my dreams
chased away my weakness
And in my path I could walk
through the streets of darkness
and amidst so much rubble in the city
Although the clouds of time
today rain much more
if I have you I feel
and I can sing
I see seashells in the sky
little stars on the ground
and in the midst of the world your peace
I see that living without you I don't want
and that all my desires
depend on something
from you
When winter ends
when the dream has to sleep
I just want to see you smile
resting your head on me
and reading me something from Martí
And if the clouds of time
darken when I'm already gone
do not fear the dream
I take care of you
I see seashells in the sky
little stars on the ground
and in the midst of the world your peace
I see that living without you I don't want
and that all my desires
depend on something
from you... from you
