Buscando América
Rubén Blades
Searching for America
I'M LOOKING FOR YOU AMERICA AND I FEAR NOT FINDING YOU
YOUR FOOTPRINTS HAVE BEEN LOST IN THE DARKNESS
I'M CALLING YOU AMERICA BUT YOU DON'T ANSWER ME
THOSE WHO FEAR THE TRUTH HAVE DISAPPEARED
WRAPPED IN SHADOWS, WE DENY IT'S TRUE
AS LONG AS THERE'S NO JUSTICE, WE'LL NEVER HAVE PEACE
LIVING UNDER DICTATORSHIPS, I LOOK FOR YOU AND CAN'T FIND YOU
YOUR TORTURED BODY, THEY DON'T KNOW WHERE IT IS
IF IT'S ONE'S DREAM, IT'S EVERYONE'S DREAM
BREAK THE CHAIN AND START WALKING
LET'S HAVE CONFIDENCE TO MOVE FORWARD MY RACE
TO SAVE THE TIME FOR WHAT'S TO COME
THEY'VE KIDNAPPED YOU AMERICA AND GAGGED YOUR MOUTH
AND IT'S UP TO US TO SET YOU FREE
I'M CALLING YOU AMERICA, OUR FUTURE AWAITS
AND BEFORE IT DIES ON US, WE WILL FIND YOU
CHORUS: I'M LOOKING FOR YOU AMERICA
I'M CALLING YOU AMERICA, OH! OH!
