Taking plane on time.
This trip will go fine.
Really very eager for the U.S.A.
It is an obsession too old
and a feeling maybe so too long.
Is it an ancient vision in my brain?

Maybe it's far for a ride
with a wide unshakable smile
or it may be far to pass by chance.
Even if a long time passes
and our lost youth still flashes,
I think I´m able to expand my land.

Voices leaking from behind,
through an old radio all the time,
on an amazing pedal steel guitar.
A classic old melody on my mind.
It doesn´t leave me alone at night.
Suddenly I need the guitar at hand.

From Bilbao to Tennessee,
a desired route for me.
From Bilbao to Tennessee,
initiation journey.
But to finish right the deal
in Laurel Canyon ends my trip.
(So) from Bilbao to Tennessee
but ending California my dream.

Wish that I was on old…
was on old Rocky Top
as that song from the far 60´s says.
At the Grand Ole Opry, stars
like the Nitty Gritty Dirt band
Willie´s Trigger still on the road again.

Sure I´d take it differently
in case of living in Tennessee.
I should not increase certain type of wish.
That old sweet melody in my ears
comforts me for days and years.
Even if away then back to me.

From Bilbao to Tennessee,
a desired route for me.
From Bilbao to Tennessee,
initiation journey.
But to finish right the deal
in Laurel Canyon ends my trip.
(So) from Bilbao to Tennessee
but ending California my dream.

I started in this plan
with a classic vinyl of America,
that my aunt and uncle
gave me as a child.
This our music coming from
this old little corner of the world,
nowadays crossing the ocean
to the other side.

From Bilbao to Tennessee,
a desired route for me.
From Bilbao to Tennessee,
initiation journey.
But to finish right the deal
in Laurel Canyon ends my trip.
(So) from Bilbao to Tennessee
but ending California my dream.
From Bilbao to Tennessee
but ending California my dream.
From Bilbao to Tennessee…
