- Melancholy and sadness.

Hoxe sinto outra vez a tristura

que eu teño de vez en cando

non quero seguir así,

vou pintar o mar salgado

con o ceo moi clareado

todo de tono azulado

esto farame esquecer

o meu ánimo apesarado,

porque todas estas cousiñas

pintar, cantar blues e mariñas

tornan ledo o meu corazón

con azul as penas non son.

- Love & nostalgia

Quixera verte aquí se ti queres

pensa que o tempo pasa axiña

Ao lembrarme de ti sempre quero

volver coma antes a tocar xuntos.

A túa voz me dirá

que a deixe sentir

no fondo de min mesmo

e a túa canción

me encherá de emoción

e me porá moi ledo. (BIS)

Quero escoitar a túa voz cantando reggae

para volver a sentirte moi preto.

Así hei ficar aquí sempre agardando

a que a túa voz me fale de ti.
