Perla Batalla Lyrics

Starbound
(Perla Batalla/David Batteau)

Your body’s starbound
Like mine
We are starbound
Chained to love
Across an ocean of time
We are starbound

That which faith said to you
In the darkness
Repeat in the light
Your legs, your hands, your feet
Colored of red clay
Will be dressed in white

You speak it in your heart
Every first word
A newborn tongue
Down this unfinished road
You have traveled
Under the sun

You are starbound
Across an ocean of time
You are starbound
Chained to love
Like this body of mine
Chained to love
                
 

Like the swallows
Returning
To their nesting ground
We are starbound

Let your edges fall
Like a whisper
And disappear in me
And let your image break
Without trying
To set you free

The past will rise again
Illuminated
By tomorrow’s hand
You’ve seen it all before
In caves of silence
For you to understand

Your body’s starbound
Like mine
We are starbound
Chained to love
Across an ocean of time
We are starbound
