letra de cartography - seanan mcguire

[verse 1:]
i know you; i met you
a long, long time ago
but you’re still a stranger:
there’s so much i don’t know

can i walk across your borders?
will your guardsmen let me through?
i have empty hands and pockets
i intend no harm to you…
i intend no harm to you…

[verse 2:]
so tell me your story
so tell me … your story …
and i might tell you mine
and i might tell you mine
we’re both getting closer
we’re both getting closer
to once upon a time
to once upon a time

can i wander through your country
learn its secret history?
i have never walked these marches
but it feels like home to me…
but it feels like home to me…

[chorus:]
we’re each of us a nation on our own
we’re each of us a nation on our own
and i am a cartographer at heart
and i am a cartographer at heart
i will chart the valley of your dreams
call the secrets from your stones
if you don’t want me to love you
then please don’t let me start…
then please don’t let me start…

[verse 3:]
so trust me; believe me
so trust me … believe me …
when i say i’ll take care
when i say i’ll take care
i can’t come the whole way;
i can’t come … the whole way …
i’ll meet you halfway there
i’ll meet you halfway there

come and wander through my cities
meet the people i have been
i have left my gates unguarded
i have left my gates unguarded
you are welcome, please, come in …
you are welcome, please, come in …

[verse 4:]
i would love to learn your customs
to be a tourist in your lands
i would love to learn your language
and teach you mine
teach you mine
so we’ll both understand
so we’ll both understand
what we’re trying to say —
what we’re trying to say —

[verse 5:]
i know it’s not easy
i know it’s not easy
to leave your doors unbarred
to leave your doors unbarred
it’s never been easy —
it’s never been easy —
it shouldn’t be this hard
it shouldn’t be this hard

we are each of us an island
with our separate rocky sh0r-s
but an island’s not a prison —
but an island’s not a prison —
that’s what men make bridges for …
men make bridges for …

[chorus:]
we’re each of us a nation on our own
we’re each of us a nation on our own
and i am a cartographer at heart
and i am a cartographer at heart
i will chart the valley of your dreams
i will chart the valley of your dreams
call the secrets from your stones
call the secrets from your stones
if you don’t want me to love you
if you don’t want me to love you
then please don’t let me start …
then please don’t let me start …

if you don’t want me to love you
if you don’t want me to love you
won’t you tell me not to start?
won’t you tell me not to start?
