From the recording JOSH (With Joana Mos)
UPDATE: Re-mastered Feb 2026
UPDATE: Re-recorded and remixed in Feb 2018
If you like Gustavo Cerati's "Symphonic Episodes", then you'll like this.
This is a work in progress of one of Joana's songs. The original version was too obvious for my liking - it was one of those "Modern RnB" type things, which didn't really do justice to her voice. So I got her to send me the acapella version and I started on the arrangement. It will sound even better once I get my hands on the original recording of her vocals (the one on this track already had delay and effects on it, and I want to replace the male voice with my own - no offense to the singer, I just have some different ideas), but it sounds good enough for now.
Please do not rip and repost, it's not my song to give that permission.
Lyrics
Como arde el Corazon
queriendo escapar
Como arde la razon (bebe)
a veces da igual
Somos las luz, la oscuridad
Somos reflejo y realidad
Somos un inocente criminal
Jugando a no amar
Mi intencion
era verte de cerca, nada mas
Tan cerca como pùdiera llegar
otra sombra perfumada en mi soledad
Apostar mi Corazon
nunca fue el plan
Jugando a no amar
Esa noche extraña, nos supo atrapar
tus ojos eran un mar revuelto
donde por fin naufragar
Corazon de metralla bum bum bum
En la oscuridad
Jugando a no amar
El lugar equivocado
en el momento indicado
oscura madrugada tic tac tic tac
“quiero escapar”
Y me arrastro este inmenzo huracan
que tu llamas libertad
Jugando a no amar
Asi paso la noche y dia
perdidos en La Sucursal
Meses y años cuento ya de mas
jugando...
Como arde el Corazon
queriendo escapar
Como arde la razon (bebe)
a veces da igual
Somos las luz, la oscuridad
Somos reflejo y realidad
Somos un inocente criminal
Jugando a no amar
