Perla Batalla Lyrics

Iberia
(Perla Batalla/David Batteau)

In a buried mirror
In a far country
The rivers run backwards
The winds blow backwards
Everyone goes backwards

There’s a woman in stone
She’s like a Motherland
And she’s looking at me
With a dove in her hand

Oh, oh, Iberia
Oh, oh, Iberia

Let’s put the future in the past
We made it through this year
Let’s run so fast
That we disappear

Let the sun shine in
On these old dry bones
Make the winds go backwards
Make everything go backwards

Oh, oh, Iberia
Oh, oh, Iberia

There’s a girl in stone
Trying to make her peace
With a buried mirror
Far across the sea
Where the winds blow backwards
Where everything runs backwards

Oh, oh, Iberia
