Rocio

I can see your chair through the whitewashed window

And there's a lock upon the door

All the smiles have left the room

Because you don't work there anymore

You always told them what you were thinking

While they were thinking of something to say

You left them smiling with the stories you told

But your smile was the gift they took away

And though the years have slipped away

For just a moment it's back again today

Rocio

Your friends are at your door

I hope the dreams you set to sea

Wash up on your shore

And when you laugh and smile, did you know

You light up all the faces you know

Rocio

They sit in your chair and you spin them around

Tell them a story while their hair falls to the ground

You carry your smile everywhere you go

The seeds you planted are beginning to grow

And everyone who knows your name

Leaves a little lighter than they came

And though the years have slipped away

For just a moment it's back again today

Rocio

Your friends are at your door

I hope the dreams you set to sea

Wash up on your shore

And when you laugh and smile, did you know

You light up all the faces you know

Rocio

They sit in your chair and you spin them around

Tell them a story while their hair falls to the ground

Rocio

When you close your eyes where do you go?

Do you count all the faces you know?

They lean in closer to each word you say

But your smile is the gift they take away

I still see your chair through the whitewashed window

But there's a lock upon the door

You left with the smiles that fell around you

Like the hair that fell on your floor

And though the years have slipped away

For just a moment it's back again today

Rocio

Your friends are at your door

I hope the dreams you set to sea
