lyrics

We’re here again
With a hand full of shovel
At workday’s end
it’s rolled right by

Sit and drink
Like old friends
Not long till tall tales begin
Heroic antiques and favors yet to win

Eddy sees the light
And his stoic silence broke
He works his ass off
Feels just like a castoff

19 years have passed
Since he saw his wife and home
He missed his children
Stranger in a strange land

(El) Salvador
My home 3000 miles away
I long to be there
Breath in that cool mountain air

(Mi) corazon
My wife 3000 miles away
To hear her whisper
Amor never disappear

He had to go
Had to fight
A chance to finance their lives
Migrating north through Latin countries

Escape the gangs
Find a job
And send home what he got
With aching pride provides for his family

Eddy starts to cry
At how hard it has become
His kids don’t know him
Where to even begin

19 years have passed
And it’s time he returned home
He vows to hold ‘em
His wife and adult children

(El) Salvador
My home 3000 miles away
I long to be there
Breath in that cool mountain air

(Mi) corazon
My wife 3000 miles away
To hear her whisper
Amor never disappear

Eddy starts to cry
As he holds his wife at home
Adoring children
Grateful just to see him

19 years at last
Return prodigal son
He fled Babylon
His family left a light on

(El) Salvador
I’m home and I will never stray
I’m glad to be here
Bask in cool mountain air

(Mi) corazon
My wife with you I’ll always stay
To hear you whisper
Amor never disappear again
