Lyrics

Español

Sos una estrella fugitiva que cruza el cielo de mi mente cuando en mi sueño mas ardiente hecho a volar la sincera confesión de mi tierno ideal. Pero entre zarzas de imposibles me voy rindiendo tajo a tajo y en caudaloso río abajo zozobra el alma al despertar. Te busco, te llamo ! En mis noches te reclamo y a la puerta de la muerte llegaré buscándote porque te amo. Te busco, te busco, cual su nido busca el ave. Como al beso de mi madre busco en las horas que devoras mi pasión.

English · machine translation

You are a fugitive star that crosses the sky of my mind when in my most ardent dream I make to fly the sincere confession of my tender ideal. But among brambles of impossibilities I am surrendering myself slash by slash and in the mighty river below my soul sinks when I wake up. I look for you, I call you! In my nights I call for you and at death's door I will arrive looking for you because I love you. I'm looking for you, I'm looking for you like a bird looks for its nest. Like my mother's kiss I search in the hours that you devour my passion.
