Parte Del Aire
Mercedes Sosa
Part of the Air
He thought twice and left
Like a strawberry, his heart
Always the same old story
With the relatives
He left me some records in the closet
A silver watch and a samurai
All detailed in a file
And there he goes, part of the air
And there he goes, in freedom
Music of crickets from the Paraná
Every new January could be heard
Like a good omen for the gossipers
He loved a star in his loneliness
And one night before Christmas
He cut the wires with a diamond
And there they go... part of the air
And there they go... in freedom
The greatest love I knew
Unintentionally passed by me one day
They will meet in the Milky Way
On some planet, in some place
Where people and their hearts go
Where the years and this pain go
And where I go... I don't care anymore
I come from rivers that flow into the sea
Part of the air
There they go... all alone
In freedom.
