Testo Rosa's Coronas/Lanterns on the Levee - Kate Campbell
Testo della canzone Rosa's Coronas/Lanterns on the Levee (Kate Campbell), tratta dall'album Two Nights in Texas
Como estas, my name is Rosa
And like my mother before me
Everyday I roll cigars
And they're the finest in the world
To pass the time, the reader reads
About the violence in America
And I pray for my daughter and her baby girl
Late one night they took a boat
Ninety miles from Havana
To escape the only life I've ever known
She could have been just like me
A well respected working woman
Who believes in her country and her home
And I wonder as I roll
Where will each one go
Will they land in the hands
Of kings and presidents
It's an art, it's a skill
And some would even kill
Just for one of Rosa's Coronas
It's everywhere in the news
That John Paul is on his way
And for years I've longed to see
The Holy Father's parade
We've been told not to go
Or production falls behind
But I know the quota won't be made that day
And I wonder as I roll
Where will each one go
Will they land in the hands
Of kings and presidents
It's an art, it's a skill
And some would even kill
Just for one of Rosa's Coronas
You can fall like the rain
And I will be a river
Winding forever
You have always been a rock
A silent hurricane
A light of focus when I could not see
Now I want you to know
That if there comes a need
You can count on me
You can fall like the rain
And I will be a river
Winding forever
Strong and true
I'll carry you away
To the peaceful water
And lanterns on the levee
Will shine for you
There's storms on the horizon
That you won't even see
Until the cold, relentless winds appear
But you won't have to worry
No, you won't have to fear
There's shelter here
You can fall like the rain
And I will be a river
Winding forever
Strong and true
I'll carry you away
To the peaceful water
And lanterns on the levee
Will shine for you
No, you won't have to worry
You won't have to fear
I'll be here
You can fall like the rain
And I will be a river
I'll carry you forever
Strong and true
I'll carry you away
To the peaceful water
And lanterns on the levee
Will shine for you
Will shine for you
Will shine for you
Shine for you
