Nick Mulvey - Cucurucu Lyrics
Softly, in the evening dusk, a woman is singing to me;She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I seeI see a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling stringsPressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings.Cucurucu, cucurucuSoftly now in the evening dusk, a woman is singing to me;She takes me back down the vista of my years, until I seeA boy, a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling stringsPressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she singsYearning to belong, yearning to belongMy heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belongIn spite of myself, and all of these nursery songsMy heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belongCucurucu, cucurucuSinging cucurucu, cucurucuTill the melodies of childish days, are upon, upon meAnd they take me back, back down the riverThey keep leading me on, they lead me to the seaAnd all of my manhood is castDown in the flood of remembrance, and I weep like a child for the past.Singing cucurucu, cucurucuSinging cucurucu, cucurucuI see a child underneath the piano, in the boom of the tingling stringsPressing the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings.Listen to me son, I'll tell you why your feather's strongCause he can still say every single day, he's yearning to belongYearning to belong, yearning to belongMy heart beats with a ceaseless longing of a yearning to belongIn spite of myself, and all of these nursery songsMy heart beats with a ceaseless, meets with a peaceless burning to belongSinging cucurucu, cucurucuSinging cucurucuSinging cucurucu, cucurucuCucurucu
