Bonita Cuba Lyrics & Chords By Kurt Elling

Bonita Cuba Lyric by Kurt Elling and Phil Galdston Just ninety miles / over the sea Another life / is calling to me Another world / I lost to fire and to ashes The sky may grow light / but the smoke cloud never passes Mi madre died / longing for home But you can't fly when you're tied to a stone Mi padre died / and he lives now with Jesus Su corazón in a million pieces I cry for them / and for all my family The friendships of my youth / and for all my country If I could / I'd make a boat out of my heart And sail to my home / Bonita Cuba / in the dark I'd go insane / but I live in music I play through the pain / and pour songs on my bruises If I could / I'd make a boat out of my heart And sail to my home / Bonita Cuba / in the dark
