This song describes two very personal stories. The first one is about choices in life.

“Is not the way that you want but what you want on the way”.

The second is a real story that happened to me. More than 30 years ago in Madrid, someone told my high-school friends that I had died by heroin overdose. In reality, I moved from to Alicante and started my life as a musician. Now, decades later, we reconnected and laugh over my resurrection.

I walked down many streets

Oh yes it happened to me

Caught some bumps on the road 

and that’s the way I learned

Sometimes I can hear the end 

knocking on the front door

But let me tell you my friend, oh no

that’s not the way I should go

This is the time when I face my crime

This is the place to start over again

This is the sound that will make a spark

I shall live

Resurrection

I went away for some time

Some people took me for dead

The trip was bound to be long

‘cause I was tied to my bed

Not until I took my time could I understand

It’s not the way that you want

is what you want on the way

This is the time when I face my crime

This is the place to start over again

This is the sound that will make a spark

 I shall live

Resurrection

I walked through many streets

Oh yes it happened to me

So now I’ve nothing to fear 

‘cause I was born to be free
