The Place Where All The Fairies Hide

Autor(es): Cordeiro

LETRA:

When I was a kid

it was as if I could just see

the magic around me

Things would become what i wanted them to be

Living in the trees

there would be monsters and fairies, it was

so easy to believe

Wonder when it was taken away from me

 

Cause now the trees are dead to rot

Stopped running and didn't get caught

Did all the monsters go to bed?

Sleeping with fairies in my head

 

So what has changed?

Did I just grow old?

Fantasy worlds are dead and cold

Where is that trait

for which I was known?

Where did my creativity go?

 

It doesn't seem

that this whole power is lost to me

Cause I still see beauty

in words I listen, write and sing

Wrote about witches, hips and cars,

with shaky hands in an old guitar

See poetry in clouded skies,

Fighting mortality with rhymes

 

Was it a good trade?

Things I could think for things I can make

Was there a choice anyway?

Or would the master of clocks come and take it all away?

I miss the castles made of stone,

but what would i be without my songs

Is that what my worlds were turned into?

A bridge, a chorus, a verse or two

 

So what has changed?

Did I just grow old?

Fantasy worlds are dead and cold

Where is that trait

for which I was known?

Where did my creativity go?

 

Is there a difference between

what made me dream and what makes me sing

Or are the words that I’m writing

powerful as the dust that comes of the wings

The words and chords come from deep inside,

from the place where all the fairies hide

 

 

So now that's changed

And I just grew old

Better than being dead and cold

Got a new trait

for which I'll be known

Follow you wherever you to go

And things will change

I’ll keep growing old

The world around me getting cold

Hold on to the trait,

because now I know

It flies me wherever I need to go
