Lágrimas del mar Songtext
von Irreversible Entanglements

Almost saw the whole world
With my own four eyes
Saw Heaven seven times
Cried on the lotus
Kissed the foot of the djembe

I cried, and cried, and cried some more
In the swamp, in Spanish Florida
In Brixton, in Cape Verde

But I′m close
I'm so close
I′m so close to the good news
The silver and gold
The daily bread
I'm so close


I'm so close to the good news
To the silver and gold
To the daily bread

And almost saw the whole world
I almost saw the whole world with my own four eyes

So beautiful I cried on the lotus
I kissed the foot of the djembe
I cried in joy
I cried in laughter
I cried in my father′s tongue
′Cause I'm so close
Because we are so close, to the good news

I cried in Panama
I cried in Kingston
I cried in Mississippi
I cried and cried some more

′Cause we are so close

So close
