Privilegio
Rubén Blades
Privilege
With my own blood
and in my own flesh,
I'll tattoo
my heart.
I'll have the privilege
to be able to take you
so you can be part
of who I am.
In the red river
that runs through my veins,
like a ship at its whim
will go your passion.
Destiny wanted
you to shipwreck in me,
instead of staying
anchored in my soul
port of your love.
With my own blood
and in my own flesh,
I'll tattoo
my heart.
I'll have the privilege
to be able to take you
so you can be part
of who I am.
In the red river
that runs through my veins,
like a ship at its whim
will go your passion.
Destiny wanted
you to shipwreck in me,
instead of staying
anchored in my soul
port of your love.
Chorus
A ship has sunk and no one has been saved.
* I tattooed you to take you with me.
* In the sea of pain on a little raft of hope,
who comes to save me.
* Let the flute play to console me.
In the red river
that runs through my veins,
like a ship at its whim
will go your passion.
Destiny wanted
you to shipwreck in me,
instead of staying
anchored in my soul
port of your love.
