Te he venido suponiendo
en todos los días que me faltan
tal cual si, pudiera verlos
como son.

Sólo quiero resumirte
que al principio te pensaba
y que hoy contemplo en ti
la costa a donde voy.

Si te cuento que esta unión
de dulce y sal me sujetó
y otras cosas parecidas
que me envuelven y me dan
de imaginar.

Es que me deleito tanto
escuchándome inventarte
en mi prisión
es mi sueño preferido y
no quisiera un día notar
que este encuentro
no me sucedió jamás

A mi que vuelvo a amanecer
para tu aliento, muchas más veces
de las que hubiera confesado ayer.
Que despido al sol poniente
cuando he contemplado el siempre
de tus ojos y por fin comienzo a ver.

Que estoy dejando de callar que te amo
que me detienes la respiración
que atraen mi vida tus puertos tiranos
a donde siempre apuntó mi amante embarcación.

Mi existencia el pescador
que a diario le tendió a la vida
sus resplandecientes redes de ultramar
donde arde el astro poeta
que se ilumina a si mismo
y viaja y sueña en su eterna senda solar
lugar de brisa, oleaje y días añiles
que siempre estaban conduciendo a ti.
Que siempre fueron signos invisibles
cursos intrazables a través de mi.

Toma el timón de mi barca
y el oriente de mis velas.
en tu tierra firme dame una señal
se mi faro por las noches
déjame arar con mi quilla en tus arenas
remontar tu manantial.

Si aguas adentro en tus labios me pierdo y
no me es posible llegar a volver.
Me internaré en tus senderos secretos
a explorar tus fuentes, tus selvas tu sed.

Entre Pairos y derivas
por los mares de mi vida
hoy me veo siempre bogando a ti.

    This song talks about confesing your love to someone you have loved in secret from a long time. This song narrates the feelings you have when you finally confess your love by making an analogy of a sailor in a sea.

    I love this song, but due to the poetry it has it's hard to translate it...

    *The word "pairo" doesn't exists in the english language, but it means leaving a boat with the sails free so the wind will move them, but won't move the boat.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Album art
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
