Como las mariposas

by David Alvarez

The sequence of songs works as a narrative of troubled times for lovers. The title track Como la Mariposa (Like a Butterfly), with its glorious serenading melody played over gentle percussion, sees David's voice soar out from a choral weave to liken the history of love to something exquisite yet fragile, "so happy, beautiful, innocent like a butterfly fluttering from one place to another, yet giving the impression that in one moment you might suddenly disappear from sight."

COROS:

Ven que no puedo volar

Solo verte venir

Huidiza y misteriosa

Por mi jardín.

VOZ SOLISTA:

Como una enferma sobre mí

Crisálida nocturna que me das

Besos de lluvia fresca que hay en ti

Y luego cuando quiero contestar

Te pierdes caprichosa en el jardín

REPETIR COROS

VOZ:

Que suerte son tus ojos de ancho sol

Ese azul que en mis pétalos es mar

Me libas hasta el último dolor

Y si me quedan ganas de besar

Temo de que te mudes a otra flor.-

Y así vivo, sin más

Por la mariposa que sobrevuela mi vida

y se va.

REPETIR COROS.
