THE RIGHT PLACE

“I composed it in Veracruz. The day I felt that something in me had found a way to heal. The moment when I could see from a distance and with clarity and gratitude the essence of my personal processes. And to clearly see the importance of taking time and being present in the gifts that life gives me if I open my heart and allow myself to inhabit each stage, willing to learn and give the best of me to the world I inhabit. ” - Natalia Laforcade.

Lyric Video

 
 

  • Pardon me, I had to step out for a moment
    I had a meeting to attend with myself
    I had forgotten how to look in the mirror -
    into my face, into my eyes - at what inhabits my universe.

    Pardon me if I cried and cried and cried while dancing
    I had old wounds to attend to from the past
    Then I returned to that needed silence
    to listen to my heart speak the truth.

    The truth that is in those sunsets The truth that is shining in the present moment
    The truth that is in the simple things like breathing.

    Pardon me, I had to step out for a moment
    there was a drying flower inside the house
    I had forgotten how to keep company with the solitude of my old garden in Veracruz.

    Pardon me if I cried and cried and cried while dancing
    I had old wounds to attend to from the past
    Then I returned to that needed silence
    to listen to my heart speak the truth.

    And the right place is now to go walking
    And the right place is now, no more is needed.
    And the right place is now to go walking
    And the right place is now, no more is needed.
    And the right place is now to go walking
    And the right place is now, no more is needed
    No more is needed.
