Los Días

The Days

Los Días

The days are unraveling for meLos días se me van deshaciendo
Underneath the tongue and at the centerAbajo de la lengua y al centro
And I seek a little bit of calmnessY busco un poquitito de calma
To see if what I sing saves mePa' ver si lo que canto me salva

From goodbyes and sorrowDe adioses y pena
From bitter condemnationDe amarga condena
From living like a bewildered childDe vivir como niña asombrada
Who lives imagining waterfallsQue vive imaginando cascadas
And like one who predicts the collapseY como quién predice el derrumbe
In every heart I become fireEn cada corazón me hago lumbre

And I keep colorsY guardo colores
Of afternoons and flowersDe tardes y flores
