The Man's Gone - Jeff Ballard, Lionel Loueke & Miguel Zenón

My man's gone now Ain't no use a listenin' For his tired footsteps Climbin' up the stairs Old man sorrow's Come to keep me company Whisperin' beside me When I say my prayers When I say my prayers He come around He come up, he come around Ain't that I mind workin' Workin' means travelers Journeyin' together To the promised land But old man sorrow Mountin' all the way with me Tellin' me that I'm old now Since I lose my man Since I lose my man Since I lose my man

I've been traveling a wave That has led me to the water While everybody in LA Was safe at home For sure my baby was an Earth sign I feel the spaces up above her She said I know you got a good heart But there's a better way to love her So I believe Even if it's not real There ain't nothing that time won't heal And I'll see you in the canyons Oh oh oh Oh no, yeah Oh oh oh Oh no, yeah If you can keep me awake If you can keep me awake a little longer Our day is gonna come Our day is gonna come, and that's a promise I believe Even if it's not real Ain't nothing that time won't heal And I'll see you in the canyons Yeah, I know Ain't nothing gonna stop you now And you're ready you can come back down And I'll meet you in the canyons Oh oh oh Oh no, yeah Oh oh oh Oh no, yeah Oh oh oh Oh no, yeah Oh oh oh Oh no, yeah

Siempre Llega el enanito Con sus herramientas De aflojar los odios Y apretar amores Siempre (siempre, siempre, siempre) Llega el enanito Siempre oreja adentro Con afán risueño De enmendar lo roto Siempre Apartando piedras de aquí Basura de allá, haciendo labor Siempre va esta personita feliz Trocando lo sucio en oro Siempre Llega hasta el salón principal Donde está el motor que mueve la luz Y siempre allí hace su tarea mejor El reparador de sueños El reparador de sueños Siempre Llega el enanito Hasta la persona Hasta todo el pueblo Hasta el universo Siempre Llega el enanito Y desde esa hora se acaba el silencio Y aparece el trino Siempre Apartando piedras de aquí Basura de allá, haciendo labor Siempre va esta personita feliz Trocando lo sucio en oro Siempre Llega hasta el salón principal Donde está el motor que mueve la luz Y siempre allí hace su tarea mejor El reparador de sueños El reparador de sueños
