Can you come over Me-Lotto
Turn around, don't let it die
Love will find a way to you
Feelings and emotions
Are just like stormy oceans
Can you stay the way you are
Heaven knows you come so far
Love will find a way to you
So promise me forever
There will never be a never
Baby, don't, don't give up
If your heart is broken
Make a brand new start
Baby, don't, don't give up
Count to ten
Start again
Don't give up
Hold on tight
Find the way
See the light
Don't give up
Hold on tight
Let your love make it right
Don't give up
Sunday Afternoon
ESMERALDA
Salvador, the afternoon sunlight is folding around us,
The dishes are done,
The buildings here, tall as our mountains
Slice through the windows and cut off the sun.
On such days I find I am longing for Puerto Rico
Though I never would return 'til you are free
But when I hear the Aguinaldo my heart's a little lighter
And we dance together Aurea and me
In my life I've been unlucky with two husbands
Gumersindo liked his rum and women friends
Then that hypocrite who beat you and preached about repentance
Has gone, and so another Sunday ends
And tomorrow is another hard working Monday
I'm still hoping for the raise they promised me
There's a job as operator
I would not have to wait for
If I could speak the language easily
But I tell Aurea:
The barrio's boundaries are our own little nation
Sometimes I hear you run upstairs
And I view my light with resignation
Keep your bible near you
Time is an ocean of endless tears.
Mmm. . .
