Compay

I'd heard your song before
And it takes me back to havana
Crashing waves on the city walls
Puedes llevarme mañana

In the barrios there was a voice
Sweet as dulce de leche
A gift like when mama brings dessert
I could've sworn I'd been there before
I could have sworn that I'd heard that voice

A sadness in your eyes
A face with a life of stories
On an island stuck in the past
I could've sworn I'd been there before
I could've sworn I felt that close

It's a reflection of melody brought through in time
Appreciation of how a voice transports me there
It's a connection of a place I've never been to
But somehow I feel like I've always belonged

It's a reflection of melody brought through in time
Appreciation of how a voice transports me there
It's a connection of a place I've never been to
But somehow I feel like I've always belonged
