NY must be it



Yes, I can just close my eyes and imagine
that I walk around with magic
It will be mine, it will be fine,
It will be all I ever wanted.

It must be it,
The way out of here,
the healing to my soul
the life to my bones.

I know it will be it,
it will be everything I've ever dreamed.
I cannot even begin to describe what I feel
when I sit around and think I’m living in the city,
the one that never sleeps.

I get scare time to time, but what’s not to be afraid, it’s the place
Will I make it there?, I don’t know and I don’t care,
I say "fuck it", I'll try it anyway, it may be a pity
but hey! we all know anything can happen in New York City.

The thought of it shines as much that at times I get blinded
I get scare thinking I will never find my way but I've decided,
It may not all be as dreamed, I know I'll have to work my ass off
but still who knows?, the pay may be cutting the links that hurt the most.

Ill look for a job,
no matter what that is,
I just want to pay the rent,
and have a good night sleep.

I want to feel secure,
and start building my own life
I don't care poor or rich
but near that central park.

I would love to have it made
and go directly to the upper east
but there's no one to blame
I may start across the bridge.

Maybe someday I get there,
maybe I don't get to cross that bridge,
maybe in one month I'm already back here
things I'll never know if I don't do them first.

For now, Im just saving and selling everything I have
and if I come back with nothing,
I'll try to remember
that with nothing this whole plan started.

I may return back here,
and feel that nothing changed,
I may again have no money, no job and no faith
but something I will never forget and will always remain
is that I lived in NYC once, and that for sure wasn't in vain.





A -kind of old- voice memo transcript...

Me rodeaste con tus brazos,  me besaste, y...

Ese beso no fue tan solo un beso
era la completa manifestación
del encuentro que se pospone y el amor que se resigna
no era solo un beso, era todo lo que se siente, lo que sentí y lo que sentiré
era el encuentro mas lejano y mas cercano que hemos tenido
ese... ese no fue solo un beso; éramos tu y yo siendo adolescentes
incluso antes de conocernos,
era la esperanza, el sueño, la duda, la incógnita
era lo que no sabemos que es, pero es
es eso que nos ha traído juntos otra vez
todo lo que nos hace amarnos sin saber si es amor
o querernos sabiendo que no solo es cariño
ese beso no solo fue un beso, fue el destino,
fue la vida sorprendiéndome como lo hace siempre
fuiste tu  y fui yo..... y fue el beso.
