From Juarez

Son de Juarez

(In my memory, time is running out)(En mi memoria, el tiempo corre)
(I'm the aroma of cedar and copal)(Soy el aroma de cedro y de copal)
(My right to think is sacred)(Sagrado mi derecho de pensar)

(Keep partying!)(¡Que siga la fiesta!)

Life is short, I don't care anymoreLa vida es corta, ya no me importa
There are so many more important things I want from youHay tantas cosas que quiero contigo que importan más
To look at the hill with this skyMirar al cerro con este cielo
Because the clouds are where I dream of livingPorque las nubes son donde sueño para vivir

Life is beautiful, and in my memoryLa vida es bella, y en mi memoria
There are so many things that change everything, knowing how to loveHay tantas cosas que cambian todo, sabiendo amar
I search for you in everything and in every starTe busco en todo y en cada estrella
Life knows me, holding your hand, I go around the sunMe sabe la vida, tomar tu mano, doy vuelta al Sol
