Yea yea I've been really thinking about you It's been a long time baby And I just can't get you off my mind It's been a while time baby and the seconds already erase your touch But if you wanna feel me again Just be gentle baby, and I Respiro tu amor, respiro tu amor, mirando el mar I breathe your love, I breathe your love I need your love, and it feels so fine It's been a long time baby And I just can't get you off my mind It's been a while time baby And the seconds already erase your touch But if you wanna feel me again Just be gentle honey, and I Respiro tu amor, respiro tu amor, respiro tu amor, mirando el mar I breathe your love, I breathe your love, I breathe your love And it tastes so fine You try so hard you just can't breath You did your best you really did And now you gonna stand up and try one more time And now you're gonna stand up and fight the good fight You try so hard you just can't breathe You did your best you really did Just take me high, feeding my light, you make me shine Just take me high, feeding my light, you make me shine Just take me high, feeding my light, you make me shine

Decimelo ponerme los pies en la tierra que me dejo llevar, que me dejo llevar Se bien que te tuve atrapada entre las cuerdas Tenes que respirar, te quiero escuchar Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo me quede, y vos estas a mil Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo me quede, y vos estas a mil Y si no puede ser Que te ilumine el sol Con tu imaginación Te veo abarcar todo Y si no puede ser Que te ilumine el sol Con tu imaginación Te veo abarcar todo Te llevas tu el calor de enero Adentro mio hay un puerto Adentro mio hay un puerto Te llevas tu el calor de enero Adentro mio hay un puerto Adentro mio hay un puerto Así que puedes volverte con un velero Nos quedan dos Todo hacer poder te lo dejo a vos Yo me encuentro bien aunque sea sin vos Y si nos falta La oportunidad te la dejo a vos Se puede perder Yo me siento bien I love this song, sweet love I love this song, sweet song Sweet love, sweet love Te llevas tu el calor de enero Adentro mio hay un puerto Adentro mio hay un puerto Te llevas tu el calor de enero Adentro mio hay un puerto Adentro mio hay un puerto Así que puedes volverte con un velero Cansado consiente despierto por fin Llego al centro a lo mas importante Ya no compro el cuento Deje de buscar Completarme con otro Empece a trabajar en mi alma A enfrentar mis fantasmas Para estar completo A pensar si lo que hago es de robotizado O en verdad lo quiero No es fácil librarse Romperse en mil partes Todo esto que pasa es la unica forma Que puede cambiar el libreto Este fucking libreto La comodidad te mantiene atornillado al suelo No busques culpables La chance esta en vos nadie mas puede hacerlo Son nodos lunares cada uno en su mambo Jugando este juego Y entonces que pasa? Con esto que hacemos? Nos quedamos sentados? Pateamos tablero? El momento es ahora no quiero mas loop Y si hay yo lo freno lo enfrento, Lo curo sanando, escuchando el adentro. Soy agua estancada esperando el momento. Ya no me hago cargo del dark side ageno Mi luz y mi darkside conmigo los llevo Cazando fantasmas mas alto me elevo Abriendo las alas no mires al cielo La musica puede ayudar a entenderlo Se siente en el alma, se siente en el cuerpo Portal de galaxias regalo sincero Te pido y doy gracias. Soy magia soy fuego Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo me quede, y vos estas a mil Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo me quede, y vos estas a mil Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo me quede, y vos estas a mil Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo me quede, y vos estas a mil Te llevas tu el calor de enero Adentro mio hay un puerto Adentro mio hay un puerto Te llevas tu el calor de enero Adentro mio hay un puerto Adentro mio hay un puerto Así que puedes volverte con un velero Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo me quede, y vos estas a mil Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo te quiero hacer bien Yo me quede, y vos estas a mil I love this song, sweet song

I've been around ya know I've seen some shit I got lost in the alps Got typhoid in the Andes Spent a night with a shaman in the amazon I've held a quarter mil I've stared death in the face a few times Ive left my body and traveled beyond time and space I've seen a lot of the beauty and a lot of the horror in this world And it overwhelms me with pain to see what we're doing to this planet I have a thing or two to say about this world we're livin in To the children of tomorrow, I apologize, we apologize I've been saying this for 5 records now but it didn't have to be this way Actually I've been saying it for 6 records now, it didn't have to be this way Future generations looking back, if there are future generations Someone has reminded me many times that this reality, if you will, isn't dictated by the laws of nature People made this world Check my boy Joaqo fuckin cuttin it up This is what its all about really Creating, growing, expressing, working Getting better ya know, not gettin worse, gettin better Everything's on the line right now, everything Our existence is on the line right now Being is on the line right now Its a funny thing because every moment it always seems like the time has come To pull the plug, to shut this shit down ya know, wrap the mother fucker up We just keep waiting for someone to do it for us I don't know if you call that the human condition or what but We're all gonna fuckin die Not just us, the fish, the trees, the polar bears, its all goin The bottom line has always been the bottom line And as long as that's the case As long as greed and hate and fear are consuming the people that control this world We're fuckin doomed This is the sound of a time machine racing to the past To stop, to stop ourselves To stop the human race from committing suicide, collective suicide Even with a time machine, seem to be runnin out of time The overwhelming feeling I get is that time is running out It's crazy waking up everyday and walkin outside and livin in the world and being here You stop for a moment and you realize, there's 9 billion of us And we're fuckin destroying our fuckin home It's so sad So what do we do? If nothing else I suppose, I suppose you could say that its a uniquely remarkable time to be alive in human existence Because its up to us Walk the fuck outside and said no more of this shit We don't need to take this It's the least we can do, for the kids We're all gonna die I mean, we're all gonna die But as it turns out ya know we can most certainly effect, at least to some degree, maybe how we're gonna die Instead of melting, burning, starving Dying of disease or some heat stroke, post apocalyptic fuckin pandemic We could die like people used to die ya know In your fuckin sleep in your bed, next to the person that you love Or out in a field somewhere or in a fuckin car crash at least Id like to leave you with a positive thought That if we all love each other, love is the answer That's right, that's right love is the answer Love is a reason If we all love each other People and plants and animals are a reason Water is a reason, air is a reason If we just loved each other we'd be able to work it out All this fuckin hate, and the bears, and the fish, and greed, and the trees Its a symptom of lack of love And the reefs We're not taking care of each other and it shows It's not just the human race ya know It's everything, its all living beings Theres a lot riding on this Everything, everything that's ever been is riding on this shit It's all I'm tryin to say I love, I love this world I love being alive And I want millions and billions more people that come long after I'm gone to enjoy it as well
