(hay que) nadar

you’ve gotta swim… swim for your life
swim for the music that saves you
when you’re not so sure you’ll survive
you gotta swim and swim when it hurts
the whole world is watching
you haven’t come this far to fall off the earth
the currents will pull you away from your love
just keep your head above…

i found a tidal wave begging to tear down the dawn
memories like bullets, they fired at me from a gun
a crack in the armor.
i swim to brighter days despite the absence of sun
choking on salt water i’m not giving in…
i swim.

you gotta swim through nights that won’t end
swim for your families, your lovers, your sisters
and brothers and friends.
yeah you’ve gotta swim through wars without cause
swim for the lost politicians
who don’t see their greed as a flaw

the currents will pull us away from our love
just keep your head above…

you gotta swim… swim in the dark
there’s no shame in drifting feel the tide shifting
and wait for the spark.
yeah you’ve gotta swim
don’t let yourself sink, just find the horizon
i promise you it’s not as far as you think
the currents will drag us away from our love

just keep your head above
swim.

gracias andy.
