Trini Soca style in Spanish. Composed and performed by Stephen Scott. BMI 2024. Reaper DAW, MT Power Drumkit 2.

Loose translation:
Like a mirage, a lake in the desert / Your image dances just out of my reach
As I struggle to close the gap / I only dig myself deeper into the shifting sand / Early birdsongs, open my eyes / You smile, "How did you sleep my love?" / "I dreamed you were lost, but now I’ve found you."
And 'just like that', all is well

I took a long flight, between two great Americas / I had never been so far from my home / I disembarked at dawn, tired and hungry / In a country where I knew only one human / My first sight was of soldiers with automatic weapons / Then, after passing through customs / I saw your magic eyes, in the crowd
And 'just like that', all was well

Shared experiences / Whether happy or sad / Are the seeds that grow memories / As the years rush by
Those unique stories, written together / Which in quiet moments / Give us opportunities to declare
“Babe, do you remember when?”

You left this morning, for coffee with some friends / It's almost sunset, but you haven’t returned / Although I'm sure that nothing's wrong / I worry when I don't know where you are / I don't need, constant contact, but a quick text / Would take away my insecurity / Now, here it is, “I'm on my way”! / And 'just like that', all is well / And 'just like that', all is well

Y ASI SIN MAS (AND JUST LIKE THAT)
