Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
Way up high
It was a dark night, almost a scary one. We jumped out of the bus at 4.30 AM from Bagan with our eyes still closed. The sky was a big shadow far away from us.
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Once in a lullaby
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Blue birds fly
Blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Dreams really do come true
Dreams really do come true
A song began with an amorous musical rhythm. I knew that song. What a romantic coincidence, it was one of my favorite songs too.
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
The night was extremely dark. That city doesn't have much light. It's because of the goverment that doesn't give a damn about the city and its citizens. Although it could seem a horrible scene, I must say there was a beautiful view out there.
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops thats where you'll find me
High above the chimney tops thats where you'll find me
I relaxed as the song continued. We were quiet, I was amazed with the situation. All the things, the thoughts, the decisions, the worries that made me feel unconfortable, flew away. There were no more problems in my life. At least for a while.
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dream that you dare to,why, oh why can't I?
And the dream that you dare to,why, oh why can't I?
I stared at the huge darkness that was hugging that old burmese car. I didn't want to arrive to the hotel. I rather be sitting there with my good friend than sleeping in a warm bed. I didn't need a warm bed, that moment was already warm. My tireness went for a walk, left me happy and with no worries. I needed no more than what I had.
Well I see trees of green and
Red roses too,
Red roses too,
The only things that made me realise I was awakened were the lights of the cars that were coming in the opposite way.
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Those lights were beautiful. So round, so white, just bright spots in a black background. Those friendly lights were fighting as much as they could against the monstrous darkness.
Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
And the brightness of day
I could have been staring at her for hours. Even a tragic car crash wouldn't have changed my attention to that white, clean, soft skin. I wanted to make a trip to those carnival lips too. Maybe later.
I like the dark and I think to myself
What a wonderful world
What a wonderful world
I wished she smiled. God, she has beautiful smile. But she didn't. She was also inmersed in her thoughts, listening to that precious song.
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
Are also on the faces of people passing by
I wished that moment lasted for ever, but nothing lasts for ever (even cold novenber rain). Maybe one day I'll ask the good Lord why beautifull moments come and go with such a crazy speed... Maybe she's right and it's just that love is cruel.
Saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, I love you
That night I swear I would´ve sold my soul to have five more minutes of that happiness.
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more
Than we'll know
They'll learn much more
Than we'll know
I think that I must have gone insane. I was there with her but I felt like I was already missing her. Is that possible? I realised that it was going to be really hard letting her go. Anyway I didn´t have any other choice, did I?
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
What a wonderful world
When the song had finished, I smiled at her and told her the truth: that was also one of my favorite songs. A pretty smile was her present to me. Don't worry, I'll hold it for ever in my heart.
Someday I'll wish upon a star,
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
My fingers touched her face with kindness. Her skin was as soft as silk. There was no need for more words. That moment was enought to be remembered for a long time. Maybe it becomes an eternal moment that will be swimming in our minds for the rest of our lives.
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top that's where you'll find me
High above the chimney top that's where you'll find me
Magic songs give us magic moments. Sometimes you need no more than a good song, a black road, white spots in the distance and a very, very nice friend.
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dream that you dare to, why, oh why can't I?
And the dream that you dare to, why, oh why can't I?
What can I say? Maybe she's right and i'm a charmer.
Or maybe I´m right and it's just love...
Or maybe I´m right and it's just love...
Todos los caminos conducen a Roma...
