Puerto Rico

 
Wake up Angelita, your mama just turned off the light
Manolo is already waiting by the old water-pipe
Her shoes in one hand she carefully walks down the stairs
Holding her breath 'cause there's danger and love in the air.
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Your papa will beat him if he ever finds out
Begging the Virgin won't help when you hear Manolito shout,
Manolito shout
He's already standing under the starlit sky
You run to his arms and you laugh and you cry as he holds you tight
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
He says he'll be leaving you soon still you beg him to stay
But he wants to make it somewhere in the U.S.A.
And though he'll be far he promises he'll write every day
When time will be right, he'll come back and he'll take you away
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Your papa don't like him, he says he's no good
He steals and he fights and he never behaves, like a young man should
Angelita she knows, he's not that bad inside
She takes the medal, she wears on a chain, and presses it into his palm.
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico

Time Flies

It/s been such a funny day
I don/t know why
Walking on an endless lane
Life passing me by
Tomorrow is calling
But I/m dragging my feet
The skies are indecently clear
But I can/t stand the heat

Sleepwalking in a haze
Stumbling like a child
Dragons that I used to chase
Tease me from inside
The future/s uncertain
Just like yesterday
Memories of heaven
Can/t be taken away

CHORUS:
You know, time flies
And the rebels, one day
They all go quiet
Ain/t no money, ain/t nobody
That can buy you peace of mind

They say you learn from your mistakes
It/s a lie
My redemption has been staged
Numerous times
But the angels of passion
Still taunt me, in my sleep
They keep throwing petals and thorns
Underneath my feet
