This is my street
I smile at the faces
I��ve known all my life
They regard me with pride
And everyone��s sweet
They say, ��You��re going places��
So how can I say that while I was away
I had so much to hide

��Hey guys, it��s me
The biggest disappointment you know.��
The kid couldn��t hack it
She��s back and she��s walkin�� real slow
Welcome home

Just breathe...

Just breathe��

As the radio plays old forgotten boleros
I think of the days when this city was mine
I remember the praise

��Ay, te adoro, te quiero,��
The neighborhood waved, and
Said, ��Nina, be brave and
You��re gonna be fine��
And maybe it��s me
But it all seems like lifetimes ago
So what do I say to these faces that I used to know
��Hey, I��m home��

Mira Nina

Hey��

No me preocupo por ella

They��re not worried about me

Mira, all챠 esta nuestra estrella

They are all counting on me to succeed

Ella s챠 da la talla

I am the one who made it out
The one who always made the grade
But maybe I should have just stayed home��

When I was a child I stayed wide awake
Climbed to the highest place
On every fire escape
Restless to climb

I got every scholarship
Saved every dollar
The first to go to college
How do I tell them why
I��m coming back home
With my eyes on the horizon

Just me and the GWB, asking, ��Gee Nina, what��ll you be

Straighten the spine
Smile for the neighbors
Everything��s fine
Everything��s cool
The standard reply:
��Lots of tests, lots of papers.��
Smile, wave goodbye
And pray to the sky, oh, god��
And what will my parents say

Can I go in there and say

��I know that I��m letting you down�╈��

Mira Nina

Just breathe
