Hey love time to get up
I think you've been sleeping too long
My day started when you were still yawning

One room just ain't enough
When it's two folks trying to get along but it's hard to leave you alone

Oh love is always better
When we take time to get back to who we are when we are apart
Distance makes the heart grow
Even when I'm lonely I'm happy knowing that your love is never far
When we are apart distance makes the heart

It makes the leaves on the trees fall
It makes the hours in the day long
Makes me wanna clear my head
Find a little cafe and write the words to a song

And I know that I'm still free
Be anywhere that I wanna be
Maybe get dressed up
Wear something real pretty that you ain't never seen

Oh love is always better
When we take time to get back to who we are when we are apart
Distance makes the heart grow
Even when I'm lonely I'm happy knowing that your love is never far
When we are apart distance makes the heart

When you love it makes the heart
When you trust it makes the heart
When you call it makes the heart
When we're alone when we're apart
In the middle of a fight
Walk away to make it right
Where we go we're never far
In the light or in the dark
On a plane up in the stars
In a movie or at the bar
Home alone or out to tea
Look to your heart and think of me
I wanna love you don't wanna try
To change the pace of your life
We get together we make it good
We get together oh oh oh

Hey love time to get up
I think you've been sleeping too long
My day started when you were still yawning

Taylor McFerrin - Decisions (feat. Emily King)

Colombian singer Sophya Ramirez, is studying at the Universidad de San Francisco de Quito in Ecuador. In her video, which won the BIN Facebook video contest, she introduced her university and her music.

Her style fuses her Latin roots with jazz, and she is inspired by the nature that surrounds South America: the mountains, rivers, colors, and people. The song “Mientras Tanto,” was inspired by relationships. According to Ramirez, the song's message is: “You should enjoy things as they come, because at the end of the day everything will pass. Continue smiling because life goes on; dance everytime no matter what. At the end, everything happens for a reason.”

Ramirez is accompanied by a Latin Ensemble featuring from the Universidad de San Francisco de Quito: William Camilo Bueno on guitar; Javier Rojas on bass; Andres Enrique on clarinet; Santiago Damian on the saxophone; Danny Millan and Mateo Jaramillo on percussion; and by backup singers Anahi Chicaiza and Romina Calleri. The song was mixed by engineer Pablo Quintero.

Lyrics

Take the prize and close your eyes don't question why or when
Will you come for me? Fill my soul again
Here in lies the master of disguise for broken men
Will you come for me? Be the light again

I can hear my mother's call 
Louder than the powers of them all
On the throne that's where she belongs
Higher than the powers of them all

Deep inside her aura lie the makings of the sun
Can't you see my dear, life has just begun
When the left upholds the right and time becomes undone
Just remember dear, it's the womb where we're all from

I can hear my mother's call 
Louder than the powers of them all
On the throne that's where she belongs
Higher than the powers of them all
(Don't go away)

I'm never gonna leave you
All I wanna do is please you
I'm never gonna leave you
All I wanna do is please you

I can hear my mother's call 
Louder than the powers of them all
On the throne that's where she belongs
Higher than the powers of them all
Higher than the powers of them all
