I've travelled a lot

the eyes closed

I have travelled a lot in space and time,

In dreams, on the moon, head in the stars.

I went as far as my mind could go.

I've travelled a lot because time stopped.

I saw a dragon in enchanted ruins,

A magical sword emerging from a lake.

Was it a lady or an angel who protected her?

I've travelled a lot because time stopped.

On the green hills that were thought to be eternal,

The wheat fields dance at sunset,

The ocean that reflects the blue sky only passes.

I've travelled a lot because time stopped.

I asked the wind to caress his cheek,

To the trees and birds to please sing,

To the ladybug to give her a kiss.

I've travelled a lot because time stopped.

Finally, it's not extraordinary

To travel in time and in my thoughts,

In my dreams, my head in the stars.

That's where I live, that's where I was born.
