Ese duende
Que vive en mi, que vive en mi Come to me now
Come to me now
Come to me now

Esa playa
Me llama a mí, me llama a mí
Take me away now
Take me away now
Take me away now

Oranges on the trees
Coffee in the streets
The way you look at me
In Andalusia
Los miedos se van
Hacia el mar
¿Cuándo vendrás
Vendrás a ver me?

El deseo
Que vive en mi, que vive en ti
Give it to me now
Give it to me now
Give it to me now

Esta noche
Dime que sí, dime que sí
Come to me now
Be with me now
Stay with me now

Andalusia (Acoustic feat. Jose L. Omedes)

Climb Jack and Jill, till you reach your fill
Wine, Jack, and Gin, tumble deep into the ocean

It’s time to tell you that when you kiss me I can’t hear your words anymore
It’s time for you to realize just because you hold me don’t mean I can read your mind
Why don’t you say something without my probing questions and my constant asking?
It’s time for you to realize just because you hold me don’t mean I can read your mind

Eggs on a wall, just wait until they fall
Shell shatters everywhere, Love’s beyond repair

No no no no

It’s time for me to realize that I’m all messed up believing in nursery rhymes

Jack and Jill

I invaded your heart you thought you felt it love
I uprooted your mind you thought you knew it love
So you said why cant we do this together, i swear we’ll make it forever, just promise me that you’ll never run away, run away, …

So you invaded my heart and you called it love
you uprooted my mind in the name of love
So I said let’s do this together, i swear we’ll make it forever, and yes I guess I promise you that i’ll never run away, run away, …

ever since you invaded my heart you're all i feel of love
ever since you uprooted my mind you're all i know of love
why cant we do this together, i swear we’ll make it forever, and i promise you that i’ll never
run away, run away, …

I Promise I'll Never

Baby take me to New Orleans where my heart first skipped a beat
I can still picture you up on the stage in that thick humidity
I miss the way our hearts were green I miss those oak-lined streets

I dreamt of you one night in Mexico had no idea what it would mean
but i swear from here i can now see all that lay ahead of me

Katrina, you sent me on my way up that amtrak train with no idea i would stay
Katrina, is it wrong of me to say I wanna thank you for who i am today

Our paths they crossed and never met Chicago became our home
with separate lives and separate loves to think of what we could have known

That night we danced, shared a beat, I finally let you go
Our hearts had holes, they opened up, we put everything on hold

You take, and you take, and you take, and you take 
You can break the levees, but oh we'll carry on

Katrina

Moss and candlesticks 
Smoke and ashes
 
Lights from hurried trains pass by
And nights of hail brew on call
Smiles and frowns meet for a drink
Introducing us to it all
 
Sound and absent fears
Warmth and colors here
 
Songs of past love draw us in
And frights of old brew on call
Smiles and frowns meet for a drink
Introducing us to it all

Moss and Candlesticks

Luces del pueblo como reflejos del mar
Luces de la vida donde quiero estar 
 
Luces del cielo en el camino salteño
Luces de la luna en las noches sin sueño 

Que no se tapen las luces

Luces de las velas en el bar La Catedral
Luces de los ojos que comparten sin hablar

Que no se tapen las luces 
Que no se las tapen las palabras        	

these walls take me back in memory through mazes of colored rooms
these paintings hanging tongues that lick and heal our wounds
these tables are deep dark wells from which flows the purest water
these candles ticking meters that burn and limit by the hour

Buenos Aires took me by the hand and moved me to her inner dance
this heart hanging busted broken in lost love song and ancient chant
the face of the famous gardel watching over los tangueros
his bright smile and white eyes blind us as they shine

Que brillen sin parpadear


Sin Parpadear

Strange how a boy
with metal heavy hands
straight bourbon on his lips
seeps into me
together in his home
we sat on the windowsill
i played for him my songs
and he melted me

i know he’s yours
but i just need to tell you one thing
we spent hours and hours together
but he only touched me with his guitar strings,
otherwise

we never touched, no
we never touched, no
we never touched, no

i guess when he saw your face
his heart reached its breaking point
he couldn’t do it anymore
and so he shut me out
its now i realize
i cant pinpoint how i feel
cant distinguish dream from real
and it weighs me down


Guitar Strings

My room of windows
Lets me live like the sky
Light for day and dark for night
Two walls of glass
To see the moon and stars
Two walls of wood
To fuel my moods of fire

But in between the cracks
Is were I sleep
With only quilts of old
To hush me when I weep
In between my thoughts
Is where I keep
My photographs of old
To hush me when I weep 

in between these walls
is where I kneel
With golden painted eyes
To hide me when I feel
in between my hands
is where she fights
her strings of metal fingers
tangled up with mine

in between, in between

in between their songs
is when I hear
Unwritten melodies
To silence me in fear
in between the cracks
is where I sleep
waiting for your breath
to hush me when I weep

before you up, turn around and look backwards
before you give in, turn around and look where you’ve been
before you surrender, try to remember 
before you surrender, try to remember 

this is life this is love this is us
this is life although i know it hurts sometimes
this is life hold on tight love has arrived

This is Life

One drop releases from its mother falling far through the air
Until it reaches a pond and joins into one

Rubanga 

One me releases from her mother falling far through the air
Until she reaches a pond and joins into one

I don't know how much is too much to be wondering
I don't know how much is too much to be asking
Rubanga
