Asking my eyes, ''What do you see?''
While holding my face with both hands
They answer, ''We see you, but we observe, within you, deep seas.''
Waves moving by the wind and trees dancing in virgin lands
Moles made of dust of love and wildness like rain and sand
I close my eyes and let my hands free
by the end of the day, it is just myself and me
storms have been strong lately
but souls are rainbows and like flowers, they stand
what are we without hope and faith
that in the middle of storms, our strength extends
I ask my heart this time ''is love what makes us survive?''
It does not say a word, but the beats go fast and fast
Is this music inside, what makes us alive?
Without saying a word, with these fast beats it makes me understand
life becomes softer when love, hope and faith are aligned
when we hold each other’s hands
and face the storms together, then our happiness never ends.
