Por Amor (part. Alice Wonder)

When I was a kid, I dreamed
Of living in a fairy tale
But life soon told me
I’ll never be what you imagined

I had perfect loves
Others were like daggers
Some will always be eternal
And others didn’t last at all

I found the truth of myself
Lost in someone else’s skin
Following my instincts closely
I did crazy things and no, I don’t regret it
Because in hugs, I quenched my thirst and my hunger
When I don’t do what I feel
I know the mirror calls me a coward

Sincere eyes inspire me
A caress is my drug
A stolen kiss saves my life
Another one sinks me and drowns me
Love is like a drink
You sip but it never fills you up
There are sweet sips, bitter sips
But both are worth it, and I know

That the most beautiful things are invisible
But they’re all around
Of that invisible, the most beautiful thing that exists
Maybe it’s love
The key that sets us free
The light that ignites the inside
If reason doesn’t understand it
It’s because it’s explained with the heart

The more open the heart
The deeper the thorn grows, but
I did it for love
So it was worth it

It doesn’t happen that often
But I wanted to try
Even if it seems like a second
I want to feel like I’m floating by their side

They talk about love in school
And marriage in class
Here I am with my heart on my sleeve
Settling accounts I’m still paying off

Now that I’m up here
I spend my time dreaming
Sometimes it seems like life wants
Me to long for the past

They’ll say we’re cowards
For not hiding the bruise
But if the world stops tomorrow
Let it be with my heart in your hands

For love, I was a thirsty slave
For it, I’ve given my life
I’ve written in the wind every feeling
That sometimes God forgets

I love lava lips
The eyes that sing ballads
I’m someone who knows a lot if I know
That without love, I’m nothing

I want to love and be loved
To sleep on a chest and dream in their sphere
If I became a clown
It’s so you’d smile when you see me alone
If any love dies, I won’t cry
True patience is
Seeing a flame go out
And waiting for another to ignite

The more open the heart
The deeper the thorn grows, but
I did it for love
So it was worth it
