Cucurucu

Softly in the evenin' dusk, a woman is singin' to me

She takes me back down the vista of my years until I see

I see a child underneath the piano in the boom of the tingling strings

Pressin' the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings

Cucurucu

Cucurucu

Mmm, mmm

Softly now in the evenin' dusk, a woman is singing' to me

She takes me back down the vista of my years until I see

A boy, a child underneath the piano in the boom of the tingling strings

Pressin' the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings

Yearnin' to belong, yearnin' to belong

My heart beats with a ceaseless longin' of a yearnin' to belong

In spite of myself and all of these nursery songs

My heart beats with a ceaseless longin' of a yearnin' to belong

Mmm, mmm

Till the melodies of childish days are upon, upon me

And they take me back, back down the river

They keep leadin' me on, they lead me until I see

That all of my manhood is cast

Down in the flood of remembrance and I weep like a child for the past

Singing, cucurucu

Cucurucu

Singing, cucurucu

Cucurucu

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

I see a child underneath the piano in the boom of the tingling strings

Pressin' the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings

Listen to me, son, I'll tell you why your father's strong

'Cause he can still say every single day, he's yearnin' to belong

Yearnin' to belong, yearnin' to belong

My heart beats with a ceaseless longin' of a yearnin' to belong

In spite of myself and all of these nursery songs

My heart beats with a ceaseless, weeps with a peaceless burnin' to belong

Singing, cucurucu

Cucurucu

Singing, cucurucu

Singing, cucurucu

Cucurucu
