Lara Herscovitch: listen
Se Puede
(Lara Herscovitch)
2006-01-01
His view from the bullseye is nothing but darts
Makes ducking and dodging a new form of art
Doesn’t care for arriving, is happy to go
To meet all those people he doesn’t know
He’s not scared of falling but that he might jump
When the wind blows the wrong way he won’t push his luck
He stars 2 left feet in his life’s own ballet
and he dances anyway
(chorus)
Se puede…
(it is possible)
She’s a railroad car looking for track
Wonders when her dues will pay her back
Nowhere to go besides swimming upstream
Heading home to water where she’s never been
She tries not to think and tries not to dream
Tries to stay balanced out there on that beam
Wonders if her goal is just a cliché
But tries to not stop at halfway
(chorus)
What if they don’t have enough cheek to turn
Maybe they don’t have enough heart to burn
Just round each corner another stairway
They’re trying to live inside gray
(chorus)
