That day

MoraAmaroLaLoba
MoraAmaroLaLoba Madrid (Spain)

Hmmm I've been sick many times. One of those times, I was hospitalized for many months, during which I went through many different emotions, starting with depression when I saw that I wasn't getting better and that I couldn't leave...

Little by little I got into the rhythm of what a hospital is like and finally, I grabbed onto life.

I went out into the hallway hoping to hear the trolley bringing breakfast, lunch, a snack, or dinner; it was my way of making the hours pass more quickly... And finally, the day came when they removed my IV... and I was able to walk out the front door without having to drag any equipment or cables...

This song is a memory of that day, splendid, full of sunshine, bustling life, smells foreign to those of a hospital—in short, it was something great...

That day when I left there

you don't know what I mean

but I do

the sun on my face

sun sun sun

the air in my hair

sun sun sun

crossed comings and goings

of people engaged in following the rhythm 

of each hour

under a blue sky without walls to enclose it


Everything was life

and I breathed it

open mouth 

to swallow it


That day

when I left there

you don't know what I'm talking about

but I do


Smells foreign to alcohol

intoxicating perfume in my nose

the sun on my face

sun sun sun

the air in my hair

sun sun sun
