Uyuni Skies

The sky melts as hardly seen

Trembles, then the dust is clear

Assumes a sign in an early grave

The past is must, the future is late

Clouds came near where it was so clean

Lets the visibility now unseen

In these times of back and forth

When truth is disclaimed often

I recall your hazy face

Lines uncertain, I may say

Brief, it was, our little story

I expected more, I’ll avow it

Guess was wrong 'bout ya, girl

And I think the worst part was

I don't even know you right

I don't even know you girl

But it was worth not wasting time

Before I stepped out of line

Here I sit watching the skies

Thinkin' of the traps of life

Singing till stars start to come

And though it all, I do not moan

Traveling some ten thousand miles

I know this world it’s all worthwhile

My view from here is beautiful

In Atacama, Uyuni, it's so

Where my mind allows me to be

Your littleness can't let you see

The grandeur of what was awarded

To you and me, for we're just lodgers

In this world

I've been through some, I've been through little

In the years, I heard many winds whistle

I'll keep it all, I'll keep singin'

I'll keep it all on keep livin'

Don't mind your swords used in vain

Your means of leaving others in stains

Something that you have to learn

To throw some water, don't need to burn
