Days From Long Ago letra

Days, they roll on too long
No Sun to keep my life from falling apart
And I just sit and wait for the world to pass me by
This world, cold and wild

Faces of children, shocked and scared
The war out there is too much to bear
I close my eyes and think of home
And mom

Days of plenty, nights of fun
Dancing in the dark till the morning comes
Mami takes my hand and teaches me to dance
And the feel the music

I stare out the window, wond'ring where she is now
I ask myself, "will we meet again somehow?"
'Cause all I have to hold
Are the days from long ago

Are you there, mami?
Mami, are you there?
I am lost without you
I don't know where to go

Mami, dónde estás?
Are you there, mami? (Are you there, mami?)
Mami, are you there? (Are you there?)
Can't go on without you
I need you here to hold me close (I need you so)
I miss those days from long ago
But those days, they fade

Then they're gone
Arrived in Berlin, a foreign new land
Didn't understand one bit of what was said
Papi finds me and takes me to his house

A man who's dry and contained
Says: You'll be safe in this place
And the tears roll down my face

The girl I knew, I couldn't let her go
But there's no going back
No other way around
Papi didn't understand and we fought day and night
He'd scream and shout, I'd cry because I knew he was right
Changed my name
Bought new clothes
Learned the tongue
Locked away
These memories
Locked away for good

I know I can't go back to the way things were
If I'm safe, why does my heart still ache?

Are you there, mami? ('Cause there's still pain)
Mami, are you there?
I need you here right now
'Cause I have no dawn and these wounds, they fade
But the scars still remain
'Cause they're still (are you)
There, mami
Mami, are you there?
I've been alone for too long
I miss the dancing and being free
How could they take that away from me?
Every day (I sit and pray)
Everyday
All I have to hold
Are the days from long ago
