I gotta break away To find the breaks in shadows abiding Where time isn't hiding waiting to take away or break my last dream Sorry to be so dour But any hour I'm due for the taking My poor heart is breaking Now that the nurses say I'm at the end I'll have to get going There's no time to waste This is not a joke I had mountains, I had stars And I'm going to lose them!
Don't Let Go Of The Latin Dream I'll be free and flying through the sky (To stay alive) I'll be in a flight of fancy (Certain to survive) Don't Let Go Of the Latin Dream I'll be tearing down a river (time is on my tail) I'll be young and maybe even male Racing the clock bay by bay I'm not going to give my life away
I'm gonna find the key To rescue me From people with flowers And visiting hours I'm sick of all the old, the used, the screams Don't cry me a river Just leave me alone This is not a joke I had lovers, I had brains And I'm going to lose them!
Don't Let Go Of The Latin Dream I'll be free and flying through the sky (To stay alive) I'll be on in flight of fancy (Certain to survive) Don't Let Go Of the Latin Dream I'll be tearing down a river (ready for a fight) Or I'll turn myself into the light Racing the clock bay by bay I'm not going to give my life away
FATHER TIME: You think you're special, think you're smart? Well I've got news for you, and guess what senorita? There is no hiding in your brain, we all had dreams and lost them to the world.
Don't Let Go Of The Latin Dream I'll be free and flying through the sky (To stay alive) I'll be in a flight of fancy (Certain to survive) Don't Let Go Of the Latin Dream You might think it's useless to pretend (you're free of time) But nothing is certain in the end Racing the clock bay by bay I'm not going to give my life away
