Tierra de luz


Busco de dónde vengo
Que me perdí
Busco de dónde vengo
Que aquí está mi raíz

Qué será de mí, si no estás ahí
Vengo como un sueño, que siempre creí
Si no te tengo aquí, cerquita de mí
Para que me arropes y pueda seguir

Quiero estar ahí
Si la isla duerme
Quiero ver las olas
Cuando el mar despierte
Y llevar tu aire
Dentro de mi sangre

Para darme tiempo
En el ritmo y hondura
Una voz sedienta
Llena de emoción

Yo te traigo esta nocheLa raíz de mi tierra
Yo te traigo los versos
Tres personas que sueñan
Te regalo el aroma y el sabor de mi tierra

Te regalo tiempo en el ritmo y hondura
Una voz sedienta llena de emoción
Yo te traigo esta noche
La raíz de mi tierra
Yo te traigo los versos
Tres personas que sueñan
Te regalo el aroma y el sabor de mi tierra
Traigo mi raíz

Busco de dónde vengo
Que me perdí
Busco de dónde vengo
Que aquí está mi raíz

Busco de dónde vengo
Que me perdí
Busco de dónde vengo
Que aquí está mi raíz

Por qué te perdiste niña
Si tu casa es por aquí
Aquí está tu raza y vida
De tu ombligo la raíz

Aquí está tu raza y vida
De tu ombligo la raíz

Con hambre me fui yo lejos
Hambre de buscar verdad
Primero perdí mi rumbo
Hoy me vuelvo a encaminar
Primero perdí mi rumbo
Hoy me vuelvo a encaminar

Ya le puedo cantar a la que a mí me parió
Ya no me siento invisible
Ya puedo ser quien soy yo

Busco de dónde vengo
Que me perdí
Busco de dónde vengo
Que aquí está mi raíz

Busco de dónde vengo
Que me perdí
Busco de dónde vengo
Que aquí está mi raíz

Soy parte de ti
Te llevo en la sangre
Si una vez me fui
Fue para extrañarte
Siempre vuelvo a ti
No puedo negarte
Tu mi parte oculta
Yo tu parte avante

Cuando llegue mi tiempo
Quiero volver a tu vientre
Seré una nueva semilla
Llena de sueños urgentes
Seré una nueva semilla
Llena de sueños urgentes

Busco de dónde vengo
Que me perdí
Busco de dónde vengo
Que aquí está mi raíz

Busco de dónde vengo
Que me perdí
Busco de dónde vengo
Que aquí está mi raíz

Busco de dónde vengo
Que me perdí
Busco de dónde vengo
Que aquí está mi raíz

Busco de dónde vengo
Que me perdí
Busco de dónde vengo
Que aquí está mi raíz

Yo te traigo esta noche
La raíz de mi tierra
Yo te traigo los versos
Tres personas que sueñan
Te regalo el aroma y el sabor de mi tierra
Traigo mi raíz
