black moon
Paco Ventura Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Black moon the first time
Turn day into night
Black moon the other side
Turn day into night
Black moon the first time
Turn day into night
Black moon the other side
Turn day into night and feeling alive

Yo camino al son entre el fuego del sol
con la luna el frío es intensa
sé que es sentir el probar decidir
pero el mundo a mi no me pesa
sé decir que ya no pueden ver de mí
y escuchar la canción que dice
Black moon the first time
Turn day into night
Black moon the other side
Turn day into night and feeling alive
Hoy persiguen mi voz, voy sintiendo el calor
que me prende por dentro y no quema
no pierdo mi sed que me hace crecer
como roca fría me encuentran
prescindir de lo que me haga hoy fingir
y entonar la canción que dice
Black moon the first time
Turn day into night
Black moon the other side
Turn day into night and feeling alive
Black moon the first time
Turn day into night
Black moon the other side
Turn day into night and feeling alive
Yo camino al son entre el fuego del sol
con la luna el frío es intensa
sé que es sentir el probar decidir
pero el mundo a mi no me pesa
sé decir que ya no pueden ver de mí
y escuchar la canción que dice
Black moon the first time
Turn day into night

Black moon the other side
Turn day into night and feeling alive
