It's hard to walk in this world
Always looking at my feet
Ignoring that in every second
Something has ceased to be
It's hard to erase this moment
Because I've seen it born
From your eyes the star in the sky
That tells me from afar what to do
Living is part of a dream
Sometimes big or small
They make the world eternal
Dodging fear and time
Everything has started in a dream
When the day ends in silence
I tell my pillow the pain
That my tears carry inside
Like a mirror they reflect my voice
Living is part of a dream
Sometimes big or small
They make the world eternal
Dodging fear and time
Everything has started in a dream
To dream is freedom
Of the one that's touched the sky without knowing how to fly
Living is part of a dream
Sometimes big or small
They make the world eternal
Dodging fear and time
Everything has started in a dream
Everything has started in a dream
Everything has started in a dream

SONG MEANING

"Sueños" invites us to drift into that magical space where reality and imagination hold hands. Nelly Furtado teams up with Mexican icon Alejandro Fernández to remind us that every heartbeat, every hope, every tear starts as a dream. The lyrics paint a picture of someone walking through life with eyes cast down, only to suddenly look up and find a guiding star shining in a loved one’s gaze. In that moment, fear and time lose their power, and the world feels infinite.

At night, when silence settles and doubts whisper, the song encourages us to confide in our pillow, let our hidden sorrows flow, and then rise stronger. Dreaming becomes the ultimate act of freedom: you can touch the sky without ever leaving the ground. Whether your dream is grande or pequeño, “Sueños” celebrates the idea that everything beautiful begins in the mind’s eye—all you have to do is believe and keep walking toward that distant, twinkling light.
