Andes

Verse 1
Whenever the sun sets, the moon is by your side,
The horizon draws the line, where day meets night
While I’m awake and alone, wishing I were the moon,
In the night’s gentle tone, I’m calling for you.
Waiting for an answer, just silence in the room.
However, I won’t complain, as I long to see you soon
Call me Miss Drama, leading a llama on the road,
If you seek one, then I’ll let mine carry your load.

Verse 2
With the llama, everything’s easier to do.
From the wool, I will make a fluffy sweater for you
We’re on our way, just me and you and the llama too.
Through the mountains, with dreams to pursue,
Are you really there when everything is blue?
Can I tell you everything? Is that true?
Would you be my friend in difficult times,
in this journey, through valleys and climbs?

Chorus
Going through highs and lows, in the mountains we roam
Chewing coca leaves, that brings us soothing calm.
Sipping Inca Kola, singing all night long,
Grilling guinea pigs, even if it feels wrong.

Verse 3
You love the high cliffs where the clouds kiss the sky,
Don’t be like Icarus, be aware, don’t fly too high.
Don’t melt like wax, take care, don’t dive too deep,
In the labyrinth of minotaurus, where ancient secrets sleep.
Like Theseus and Ariadne, I’ll give you a thread,
Unraveling the path, where our hearts have led.
No matter the confusion, don’t be afraid,
we’ll guide through, where the monster invades.

Verse 4
You’ll slay the Minotaur, with heart and fire
From colorful wool, we’ll spin our own fibres
Creating our calendar, by sun, moon, and stars,
I’ll tie a quipu knot, as a reminder of our love
Just as tight as guitar strings, high, but feeling low
Getting higher than the peaks where coca leaves grow.
So whenever the sun rises, know I’m by your side,
With the llama walking through the Andes, our thread will guide.

Outro
You want drama, I’ll scream very high,
Reaching for notes that touches the sky
Tune the strings higher, until C8
And I’ll cry, while nothing is okay.
