The Dreamer - Jackson Browne

Just a child when she crossed the border

To reunite with her father

Who had travelled north to support her

So many years before

She left half her family behind

And with a crucifix to remind her

She pledged her future to this land

And does the best that she can do

¿Adónde van los sueños?

Nacidos de la fe y la ilusión

Donde no hay camino ni huella

Solo deseos que susurran al corazón

Eagles fly on columns of the wind

(Viviendo en el viento)

Fish swim the currents of the sea

(Qúe libre, el mar)

People cross oceans and deserts and rivers

(Cruzamos el río)

Carrying nothing more than the dream of what life could be

Today she got the order

They’re taking steps to deport her

To send her back over the border

And tear her away from the life she has made

We don’t see half the people around us

But we see enemies who surround us

And the walls that we’ve built between us

Keep us prisoners of our fear

¿Adónde van los sueños?

Where do the dreams go?

Nacidos de la fe y la ilusión

Born of faith and illusion

Donde no hay camino ni huella

Where there’s no road and no footprint

Solo deseos que susurran al corazón

Only desire that whispers to the heart

Solo deseos que susurran al corazón

Only desire that whispers to the heart

Solo deseos que susurran al corazón
