Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Softly in the evenin' dusk, a woman is singin' to me
She takes me back down the vista of my years until I see
I see a child underneath the piano in the boom of the tingling strings
Pressin' the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings
[Verse 2]
Cucurucu
Cucurucu
Mmm, mmm
[Verse 3]
Softly now in the evenin' dusk, a woman is singing' to me
She takes me back down the vista of my years until I see
A boy, a child underneath the piano in the boom of the tingling strings
Pressin' the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings
[Verse 4]
Yearnin' to belong, yearnin' to belong
My heart beats with a ceaseless longin' of a yearnin' to belong
In spite of myself and all of these nursery songs
My heart beats with a ceaseless longin' of a yearnin' to belong
[Verse 5]
Mmm, mmm
[Verse 6]
Till the melodies of childish days are upon, upon me
And they take me back, back down the river
They keep leadin' me on, they lead me until I see
That all of my manhood is cast
Down in the flood of remembrance and I weep like a child for the past
[Verse 7]
Singing, cucurucu
Cucurucu
Singing, cucurucu
Cucurucu
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
[Verse 8]
I see a child underneath the piano in the boom of the tingling strings
Pressin' the poised feet of his mother who smiles at him as she sings
Listen to me, son, I'll tell you why your father's strong
'Cause he can still say every single day, he's yearnin' to belong
[Verse 9]
Yearnin' to belong, yearnin' to belong
My heart beats with a ceaseless longin' of a yearnin' to belong
In spite of myself and all of these nursery songs
My heart beats with a ceaseless, weeps with a peaceless burnin' to belong
[Verse 10]
Singing, cucurucu
Cucurucu
Singing, cucurucu
Singing, cucurucu
Cucurucu
Cucurucu
