Morning 02:11
Morning, where do you live You ancient future? Mobile, yet motionless I reach for your rapture Such a beautiful morning And the sand will only know Until the rocks melt with the sun What blooming hearts and hands will grow Morning, how long you've lived Across my eyelids All that I hoped to give I lost in my blindness Such a beautiful morning And the sand will only know Until the rocks melt with the sun What blooming hearts and hands will grow

Bésame, bésame mucho Como si fuera esta noche la última vez Bésame, bésame mucho Que tengo miedo perderte, perderte después Quiero tenerte muy cerca Mirarme en tus ojos Verte junto a mi Piensa que tal vez mañana Yo ya estaré lejos Muy lejos de aquí Bésame, bésame mucho Como si fuera esta noche la última vez Bésame, bésame mucho Que tengo miedo perderte, perderte después --- (Translation - poetic, not literal) Kiss me now, kiss me with passion — kiss me as if this were to be our very last night. Kiss me now, kiss me with passion — for you I may never-more see once past early light. I want to hold you so closely, look into your eyes to find you mirroring me. I’m sure dawn will find me lonely cast away so far behind where you then will be. Kiss me now, kiss me with passion — kiss me as if this were to be our very last night. Kiss me now, kiss me with passion — for you I may never-more see once past early light.

Si tu corazón Me olvidara Será porque no vives En mi mundo Que es tan grande Nunca olvidaré Tus ojos me recuerdan Para encontrarte Si mi corazón No recuerda Los besos que nos dimos La primera vez Mi mundo no se abre A la necesidad De tu presencia En mi vida --- (Translation) IF YOUR HEART If your heart Will forget me It will be because you do not live In my world Which is big enough I will never forget Your eyes remind me Where to find you If my heart Does not remember The kisses we gave ourselves The first time My world would not open To the need Of your presence In my life

about

It all started in a decision to pursue a wild dream... to create a solo month-long artist retreat in Cuba. There was no agenda to write or record an album, yet the music poured forth in a journey of self-discovery. The result? Cuba Diaries.
