[Verse 1]
I think I must have lost my way a long, long time ago
Somewhere in the distance between love and business, I don't know
I didn't have that far to go to find my pleasure though
Lovers like islands in an archipelago
Set in a sea of time, love is a place you find
Where when two people rhyme they begin to grow
Learning the other ninety-nine words for snow
[Chorus]
This is a song for Barcelona
City of gravity and light
City that gave me back my fire
And restored my appetite
[Verse 2]
I hear the sounds of youth up all night in the plaza
Under the sleepless eyes of the grandmothers on the terrassa
In the streets of Gràcia and on the Ramblas
I see the searching eyes and youthful bodies pass
And my own vanished youth becomes my central truth
Though I no longer care, the truth is everywhere
That soon the world I love will no longer be anywhere
[Chorus]
This is a song for Barcelona
City of Gaudí and Jujol
City that ignited my desire
And temporarily my soul
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
They come from Ireland, they come from Africa
They come from the US, they come from Canada
They come from Norway, they come from China
They come from Uruguay, and from Bulgaria
They come for pleasure, they come for freedom
For the chance encounter or the revelation
They come for business or for adventure
And fall in love with the information
About the world and about each other
They dream, and when they wake up
They're not in Spain anymore
[Chorus]
This is a song for Barcelona
For architecture and futbol
And for the streets that gave me refuge
In my escape from rock and roll
[Instrumental]

Una cançó per Barcelona
Per respecte i futur
Per justícia i la terra
Ara som sis milions i un
