1. Where Everything Begun
2. Maya's Diary
have never met my daddy, even though he was the first person who held me in his arms after my mommy.
Mommy made sure I knew everything about dad, but I have so much more to learn about him.
That's because the things he lived in the last few months of his life are enough to fill a diary of a whole lifetime.
You know, daddy, every single night that goes by me and mommy always dream of you, but I bet you already know that, don't you?
This year mommy and I have a present for you again.
You'll find it at the same spot we leave it every year.
But why do you always come and take it while I'm sleeping?
Why can't things be different this year?
I hope you like it, anyway...
Happy birthday daddy.
And, as you can see, all your wishes and dreams have come true.
3. Somewhere
I'm waiting for the sun to wake up with me
it's too late for the warmth to come inside
I feel the same like yesterday
Although my life is coming to an end
a little smile stretches my skin again
GOD, why did you give me cancer?..
If you're honest, then give me an answer
I'm God himself, the Satan too
giving is a huge part of my being
[Chorus:]
God, why did you treat me like a punisher
like a parent locking up his child in the basement
God, why did you let all the joy go to waste?
I'm sure you're hiding somewhere
Are you the one who created me?
Maybe I'm the one who created you
I'm going to find out even if I have to travel around the world
If you can hear me, know that I'm not afraid of you
I'm going to hurt you like you've already hurt me
All I want from you is a good conversation
[Chorus]
I'm leaving today,
I'll fly over Nasca
till the people in this plane
are staring at me like I'm insane
I'm leaving today,
I'll fly over Nasca
till the people in this plane
are staring at me like I'm insane
[Chorus x2]
4. Ya Va llegando el dia
I find myself onto a cliff,
from one forest to another I fly
like the other day I feel the same
everywhere I go I smile, I cry, I'll die
Like a condor who stopped to catch his breath
I feel I'm one step closer to God
Am I so numb or just too scared?
Why is it so hard for me
to open my heart and see?
Ever since the day I was born,
my clock is ticking backwards
Only time will live forever
5. From East to West
All my life I was feeling so incomplete
joined others at the crossroad of fate
who can define happiness when ignorance becomes bliss in the name of love
No more lies, I just found my inner truth
forsaken desires taken by storm
summer rain wiped out of my pictures of youth
I come to me, come to me, come to me
It's a new world that's coming through
and clears out my point of view
This woman is so mystified
I will delay my last goodbye
I remember the time when she spoke to me
all the others disappeared from my sight
I was feeling no more loneliness cause happiness replaced my heart with the warmth of love
No more crying, I found a reason to live
nothing can stop me cause I care anymore
summer rain mixed with my tears of youth
I come to me, come to me, come to me
It's a new world that's coming through
and clears out my point of view
This woman is so mystified
I will delay my last goodbye
Cause I want so much to cry,
but only you can stop me my rise
It's a new world that's coming through
and clears out my point of view
This woman is so mystified
I will delay my last goodbye
6. Failte Romhat a chara
7. Love and Loss
The purple sky around you looks like a frame,
covering the most beautiful painting
I see a picture every time I close my eyes,
I taste your tears
[Chorus:]
I want to cry,
I'm proud enough to lay my head
and let the pain outside
Love will tell,
cause you and me will be again
the queen and king of OUR time
You let a flower come into my side,
never took it just let it flow in the stream
the seeds will grow up and become new flowers,
reminders of a love that will always be...
[Chorus]
I wonder why
Why every good comes to an end
it's sad but true
Let's spin around until we feel the ground no more
When love and loss knocks at your door
you will feel out of control
All alone let's spin around until we feel the ground no more
"Who will take the blame
it doesn't matter any more
we're both lost tonight
maybe God thinks it's just a game
I'll drink another round
till the morning sun finds me on the floor"
The bright sky around me looks like a frame,
covering the most uncolored painting
I see a picture every time I close my eyes,
I taste my own tears
[Chorus x2]
8. Help
Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone
Help
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self-assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the doors
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me
And now my life has changed in so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I've never done before
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self-assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the doors
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me, help me, help me, oh
9. The Sun Shines for All of Us
You won't have another chance,
come now and join our dance
(Don't cry tonight, I live my live)
One more night together,
no more wasted time
In your arms forever,
for the rest of my life
In your eyes a wonder
waiting to be found
I'll keep dreaming our love
until the end of my time
