lyrics

We started building
On high grounds
Build towards the sky
We started building
With dry wood
Rusty nails that shine
That first night when our eyes met
I knew that pretty soon
We’d start building
On a mud road
A highway sign
We were building
Walls against wind
Doors instead of fire
A gate we never meant to use
A cure for time

Now I’m wondering through
These ruins of you

We kept building
Moving on like a backwards flow
We kept building
Our tools went dull
Walls got low
But we did not know
We did not show
It was slow motion building
On high grounds
Too low for high tides
We tried to keep on building
Like soaked birds aching to fly
Then the tools dropped
And the building stopped
And we saw, we saw

We were wandering through
The ruins of me and you

about

a Singer of Songs Barcelona

I sing songs and if you want, you can listen.
