La Peregrina (Single edit)

In her time, now embracing so many years She would mirror the joy and tears, that were destined to pass All that time, she saw splendour and vanity Adding worship and jealousy to what no one possessed All her beauty would last, serving models and movie queens A heart made of stone (a heart made of stone) She embodied our every dreams but our hearts were never her home 'Cause she wanders alone In her time, she has brightened the darkest days On display to enhance the craze of the powers that were All that time, she saw more than her share of things Like a bird that has lost its wings, just a dawn in their world To be seen but not hear, serving models and movie queens A heart made of stone (a heart made of stone) She embodied our every dreams but our hearts were never her home 'Cause she wanders alone She wanders alone Yes, she wanders alone She wanders alone La Peregrina La Peregrina La Peregrina La Peregrina Hung paintings high above the wall To share your light and uniqueness She saw the mighty rise and fall Oooh holding their hand, never forget Pray that it goes flying by She wasn't born, she'll never die Never asking why And then in different state of mind (And then in different state of mind) Oooh repeat these two words of affection Untouched by anything but time (untouched by anything but time) Ooooh, frightfully close to perfection But later if youth dies and drowns, the memories remain somehow If I could hold her now La Peregrina La Peregrina La Peregrina La Peregrina All that time, she had sweet talk and bare-faced lies Not surrender and sacrifice She was lost, found and sold In her time, there was no one to take her place From the first to the final days She would never grow old If her story was told, serving models and movie queens On their celluloid film She embodied their wealth and dreams but that was never her heart 'Cause she wanders alone La Peregrina La Peregrina La Peregrina La Peregrina
