The Perks of Being a Cuban.

¿A que tierra pertenezco?
¿Al acero o al mar?
¿Al concreto o la arena?
¿Ni sé en que idioma hablar

Vivo en la orilla
Del ingles y el español
Camino sobre el borde
De mi hogar y de mi amor

Como puede ser
Que amo a esa tierra
Ese lugar en que me imagino
Que no existe ya
Como puede ser
Que me siento en esa tierra
Profundamente pertenece
Cuba dentro de mí

I wish I knew you
That I could see you
Know what you’re thinking
And going through

What they’ve been saying
What you’ve been living
The world you’ve been facing
All alone

Living your life on second chances
Getting by on the luck of the draw
Life is not the way you’ve planned it
And you’re ready to move along

The last word that you say to me
Won’t be goodbye
Cause there’s so much left
To explain
The last time that you look at me
Straight in the eye
Look at me with respect
And honesty

I want to believe you
I want to trust you
And know that these mistakes
Are for the best

I want to be sure of
All I’m not sure of
There’s so much more I
Can’t understand

Living your life on second chances
Getting by on the luck of the draw
Life is not the way you’ve planned it
And you’re ready to move along

The last word that you say to me
Won’t be goodbye
Cause there’s so much left
To explain
The last time that you look at me
Straight in the eye
Look at me with respect
And honesty

Open up your media player. Load up all your MP3s. Set it to random. List the first 20 songs that play. No cheating. Bold the one you find the most embarassing (if there is one). Italicize your favourite. Underline your least favourite. Post your list in your journal so others can mock and scorn and laugh.
