Verse 1
Yo veía el tiempo pasando y el mundo girando
I saw time passing and the world turning
El viento soplaba y moría la vida, todo se iba volando
The wind blew and life died, everything flew away
Y esperaban, llegaría algo
And they waited, something would come
Escuchaba una música, iba flotando a mi lado
I was listening to music, it was floating by my side
Señalaba a un mundo lejano, casi lo podía tocar
It pointed to a distant world, I could almost touch it
Esperaba, llegaría algo
I was hoping, something would come
Esperaba, pasaría algo
I was hoping something would happen

No era en ese lugar donde estaba, cuando cerraba los ojos
