Habana Blues

Today, I look through you, the streets of my Havana
Your sadness and your pain, reflect its facades,
It's your soul and loneliness, the voice,
The voice of this tired nation

Just you and me, in the sleeping city
Just you and me, kissing the wounds
Oh Havana!
Every time you forgot more about yourself, to support my dreams
But I know I hurt your heart, playing with your feelings
It was the light, that I stole
Leaving your desires in the dark, eh, eh...

Just you and me, in the sleeping city
Just you and me, kissing its wounds

And I have to let you go, putting the sea between us
Paying the price of others who live off contradiction
Another family marked by separation
How to fight with that sun, with politics and with god
