Jackson Browne The Dreamer Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Just a child when she crossed the border
To reunite with her father
Who had travelled north to support her
So many years before
She left half her family behind
And with a crucifix to remind her
She pledged her future to this land
And does the best that she can do

[Chorus]
¿Adónde van los sueños?
Nacidos de la fe y la ilusión
Donde no hay camino ni huella
Solo deseos que susurran al corazón

[Bridge]
Eagles fly on columns of the wind
(Viviendo en el viento)
Fish swim the currents of the sea
(Qúe libre, el mar)
People cross oceans and deserts and rivers
(Cruzamos el río)
Carrying nothing more than the dream of what life could be

[Verse 2]
Today she got the order They're taking steps to deport her
To send her back over the border
And tear her away from the life she has made
We don't see half the people around us
But we see enemies who surround us
And the walls that we've built between us
Keep us prisoners of our fear
[Chorus]
¿Adónde van los sueños?
Where do the dreams go?
Nacidos de la fe y la ilusión
Born of faith and illusion
Donde no hay camino ni huella
Where there's no road and no footprint
Solo deseos que susurran al corazón
Only desire that whispers to the heart

[Outro]
Solo deseos que susurran al corazón
Only desire that whispers to the heart
Solo deseos que susurran al corazón
