To Ramona

(Album: Hangin' On By A Thread - 1992)

Ramona
Come closer
Shut softly your watery eyes
The pains of your sadness
Shall pass
As your senses will rise

The flowers of the city
Though breath-like
Get death-like sometime
And there's no use trying
To deal with the dying
Though I cannot explain that in rhyme

Your cracked country lips
I still wish to kiss
And to be under the strength of your skin
Your magnetic movements
Still captures the moments
I'm in

But it grieves my heart, love
To see you be a part of
A world that just don't exist
It's all just a dream, babe
A vacuum, a scheme, babe
That sucks you into feeling like this

(Aw, squeeze it, Flaquito)

Ramona
Tus ojos me dicen
Que vas a llorar
Tus sueños se borran
Y nada se va
Realizar

Ramona
Tus ojos se secan
Y pierden su luz
Tuviste a un cariño
De un hombre y un niño
Y ahora solamente eres tú

(Augie)
(Oo-ha!)
(ÍJu-ju, ya!)

I'll forever talk to you
But soon my words
Would turn to a meaningless ring
For deep in my heart
I know there's no help
I can bring

Everything passes
Everything changes
Just do what you think you should do
And someday maybe
Who knows, baby
I'll come and be crying to you

Sabes que te quiero
Que por ti me muero
Y solamente eres tú
