David Bisbal Ferré (born in Almería, Spain on June 5, 1979) is a Grammy-winning Spanish pop singer. He gained his initial fame as a runner up on the interactive reality television show Operación Triunfo.
He has since released four studio albums, all of which topped the Spanish Albums Chart, in addition to recording a number of live albums. He's toured throughout Europe and Latin America and is now considered to be a crossover international artist.
Until 2012, David Bisbal has sold more than 5 million records in Spain and America, getting 35 Platinum albums, 17 gold and 2 diamond. 'Corazón Latino' and 'Bulería' treasure each one IFPI Platinum Award, official certification for selling over 1 million copies across Europe.
David Bisbal left school early and worked in a platinum and flower nursery. He was encouraged by his colleagues to audition for a music contest and he initially became part of Orquesta Expresiones where he continued singing and dancing.
In October 2001 he auditioned for the first ever edition of Operación Triunfo (Spanish equivalent of Star Academy) where he was accepted and was one of the 16 finalists. The grand prize was the chance of representing Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest. He came second in the final losing to Rosa López. She went on to sing Europe's Living a Celebration for Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest 2002 (ESC) competition.
There's a love on the edge
So suspicion attracts revenge
Then there's no communication
When we fall, by the wayside
Hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Don't build it up to tear it down
You plant the seed in love, you've found
That everybody needs a chance to grow
There's a love on the wing
I swear this time is really it
When you tell me you, love me
No need to go, put yourself above me
Hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Don't build it up to tear it down
You plant the seed in love, you've found
That everybody needs a chance to grow
Hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Don't build it up to tear it down
You plant the seed in love, you've found
Oh, hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Move slow
Now your time's at hand
Take heed
'Cause our love has passed
Hot fuse
Can be short or long
The time bomb
Of your life has come
People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall
Dry land is just a love away
Warm sun and a place to lay
I see your future
The water above you calm and clear
People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall
Love lost always makes one sad
You seem
You seem to rise instead
Feel the water, ice cool water
People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall
People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall, the waterfall
Feel the water, ice cool water
Feel the water, ice cool water
People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall
People may come, people may go
Just as long as the water's slow
But watch out when you're
Headed for the waterfall
Waterfall
Come in, take a chair
Nothing else to do out there
Is what you want, what you need
Decisions made in privacy
Step right up and name your game
Take a chance, pick a card, any card
I'll guess your age, I'll name your fate
Don't be shy I'm waiting
Come to the sideshow
Come to the sideshow, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah
Mysterious and curious
Boredom is so serious
The red velvet curtain draws
There's no way to hide your flaws
Now you've come to see your show
It feels like what you've learned ain't vogue
Do you know what you're looking at
Can you see what is staring back
You're in the sideshow
Come to the sideshow, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah
The government, firmament, spearmint, double mint
Handshaking, green berets, looking cool and talking sharp
And you say this and that and that ain't where it's at
Time can wash away the fears
Stay away from the devil's tears
Get off your knees and on your feet
Can you feel the heartbeat
Come to the sideshow
Come to the sideshow, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah
Time can wash away the fears
Stay away from the devil's tears
Off your knees and on your feet
Don't be shy I'm waiting
Come to the sideshow
Come to the sideshow, yeah
Come to the sideshow
Come and get your mind blown, yeah
Come to the sideshow

I get so lonely when I think of you
I get the feeling our love is never new
We watched each other going many different ways
Come with me let's meet at the station
Where we first started
Then we make love, life in the world
Seems like we're living on rainbows
Take a ride
On the Honeymoon Express

You're dreaming of me, I am dreaming of you
How long will it be till the dreaming is through?
Take me now let's go for a ride

Your glowing breath
Tears of blood... pain... lust
Twisted bodies... souls... minds
Names were forgotten
Words are needless
Space fades away... time has stopped
We're rising above all...
Only we... without sins... without inhibitions
Immersed in my armchair
I'm leaving my body
I'm watching the atomic hell unleashed beneath me
I'm alone... only I'm to see...
Who decide it about?
Like cigarettes' smoke... they're rising to sky
The souls that watched together with me
...how children were dying with open eyes
...tears instead of blood... blood instead of tears
Only I saw how the angels' wings burnt
Maybe they'll see what I saw
Maybe they'll densely turn their heads
A stone arises slowly from a rock
Cold and grey
Stones wear down to a sand with time
Cold and grey
The sand falls through the fisted palm
Which only dust remains on
The dust catches the sweat
From the other palm
Cold and grey
In the crowd where
The single one is useless
Hard as stone
From the crowd of individuals
Where everybody's a king
A grip of dust covered palms
A mound of stones hard as a rock
A grip of dust covered palms
How many people touch in the crowd
Fragments of the past flash before my eyes
Never ending streams of images colliding
Silhouettes of memories slowly fading away
Illusionary seductions haunts me in my dreams
Fighting for freedom
But the chains I'm in won't break
It will soon be too late
I am here, I am lost, I am weak, & bothered
Is this it?
Will I grow when my soul falters?
I am here, I am lost, I am weak, & bothered
Is this it?
Will I grow?
I am weak & bothered
Blinded by the fear
Of being left alone
I seek the truth within
As the shadows are closing in
Calling oblivion
Cause the state I'm in won't change
And I'm fighting for freedom
Cause the chains I'm in won't break
I am here, I am lost
I am weak & bothered
Is this it?
When the bound of day falls
sky-line glows as your passion
the scent of anquish small
though only such futile impression
A night queen runs along my lid
she invites me to her foggy empire
no borders, I laugh as the small kid
and all I feel is a desire!
I wish to lead a blind man through the labyrinth of thorns
to kiss with phantasy in her soft embrace
I wish to enthral your love and to believe eternaly
to send a farewell to dead river, it's boring gace
Wandering in paradise of my mistress
I meet a white-haired old-man
with the next steps I feel your presence
and I see the picture again, inviting woman
Life's murmur and the song of birds
foggy rays of stories
the fresh breath lets down from clouds
but already doesn't tempt my senses
The velvety wind propels my raft
always nearer to eternal throat
I've no longer force to break a stream
I send to next-borns the last scream:
"When the graceful queen of stars
offers you her tender love
don't hide your desire to holes
You've been asking what will it take
Will I ever again trust your face
Forgive you for past mistakes
Well why should I when my life's been based
On instincts that aren't in your traits
Some things we learned in the race
I see the sound
I will find my way
It's endless it's endless
I see the sound
I will find my way
It's endless it's endless
A lifetime of color gone in one blink of black
I'd rather live in gray than go back
Why go back
And all the pain that clothed me
Reminds me your motives attack
But baby there's no love in that
You said you're dying you're dying to try this
Well maybe you're gonna die trying
Doing just enough just enough to get by
And all these words they leave me exposed
They'll never compare to the word
I've yet to disclose
I see the sound
I will find my way
It's endless it's endless
I see the sound
I will find my way
It's endless it's endless
I will find my way
Maybe there's crater of oasis behind another dune
Who knows?
I don't want to guess
I want to go on and make myself sure
I want to see another shadow behind the hill
One shadow is like a wrinkle in the dust
You sit on the crest of dune
And you have the whole world
In your palm
The rays refract in a crack of clouds
And glitter that wants to warm
Maybe there's crater
Behind another dune
I don't want to guess
I want to go and make myself sure
And you have the whole world
In your palm
Where the single chase can't decide
Even though it plays a part
Light and shadow
In the grey dust between dunes
I want to see another shadow behind the hill
One shadow is like a wrinkle in the dust
You sit on the crest of dune
torn up into pieces at the bottom of a downward spiral
with only yourself to blame and only yourself to change
you've got to find your strength,
catch your breath in the cruel light of day
and you end up betrayed at the end of the world
erase the thoughts, experiences and feelings that you had
at the end of the world
you need to feel how the wind fans the waves
how the tide heals all wounds
for the moment you wait until you find your own way
you can hardly breathe, your heart is bursting
you can't regain what's gone
and you feel so betrayed at the end of the world
you need to rest a while
only then you'll be able to laugh again
what do we know of hidden fears, thougts, hopes, of those around us
all the sences of the creature are concerned with the here now
but we can separate ourselves remember sympathize with others
are they our friends?
are they endangered?
what are they feeling?
can we overcome the distance between us?
all the sences of the creature are concerned with the here now
but we can separate ourselves and remember sympathize with others
pain fades with the death of one
there is nothing of anger, failure, ecstacy, torture
which is a praiseworthy gift of evolution
are they our friends?
are they endangered?
what are they feeling?
can we overcome the distance between us?
all the sences of the creature are concerned with the here now
but we can separate ourselves and remember sympathize with others
pain fades with the death of one,
there is nothing of anger, failure, ecstacy, torture
sitting... current dragging... wind mills
I'd like to be the vital no.1...everywhere for everyone
standing... hearing voices which come to me
gust of wind knocks me down, I lie in the dust
tears, rivers, the small kingdom
I fall asleep... strangeness surrounds me
dragged away... losing my soul
flying I see landscape surreal
I feel like a child, careless in the world
then I am caught in the whirlpool
I feel like a child, careless in the world
I'm heaven that gave you promise find my way maybe somewhere in between
Deep inside the forest
I'm talking with the trees
I want to tell them the story of mankind
- isn't it too late?â
The singing winds in the maze of trees
the unknown mountains and the charming silhouette
fighting with the burning light
Dance in the mad rhythm of life
among the rays of jewel
there, deep inside the heart of earth
its cry sounds in my soul
Almost the stoned eyes
saved from the endless sleep
they fuse and begin cry
hear that quiet weep
- the tears of enchantment!
It's like violin in my ears
- I want to embrace but I'm too small
laughter, sorrow - whatever I see
waiting for the evening fall
"Only the chosen ones visit that land everyday
a silent face can tell and shout
the flow of will shall mark the sings
let your palms be spoken out
thousand stories, thousand lines
as it springs the river thru our minds
wasting effort not to find
asking road and being blind
wasting effort not to find
let your palms be spoken out
thousand stories, thousand lines
fighting for the conquered
the lines will surely cross our path
there's no point in taking mind
a silent face can tell and shout, let your palms be spoken out
the flow of will shall mark the sings
the lines will surely cross our path
there is no point in taking mind
thus trying to reache the reached
The silence..the silence and the dark
neverending tunnel in empty space
the movement... the only movement and the whole empire
of silence is forever lost
space isn't interested in what's up
and millions of molecules set out for the journey of life
next actor comes
Fumbling intellect
... meanwhile only looks through door of mystery
... to the boxes of wealth of own soul
... and touches the life with the clumsy fingers
He lives here in his own loneliness
he only takes for this time... he has nothing to give
... the first dreams come
the first thoughts... I am!
there are people who are like tongues of fire flame
everything that they touch turns to ash
there are people who are like a pile of dust
just one touch and they fall apart, nothing remains
everyone has their life in front of them,
it is not an easy journey
to turn back means to lose your own life
there are people who climb straight to the top
to turn back means to lose your own life
there are people who through fear of failure
wander in the valley will never be
Just a whisper of thousand crows
Spreads my palm
Somewhere behind the fence, where's the world's end
Perhaps there, just there I fell on my knees
To black mud on the ground
Just a whisper of thousand crows holds my hand
A palm knocking on the door of blindness
The scream of crows, only wings of blindmen
I want to hear their yell
In echoes of blind crows in the black nights
Just a whisper of thousand crows
Transfers my soul from all parts
The soul torn out of an old picture
The wing gring to human's world
Where the infantry man with a white stick
I sit here and observe the sky with my dreamy eyes
My soul leaves my body and flies to far stars
I visit unknown worlds where I can see
No lies... dirt... betrayal... everything is white
Unknown places full of admirable secrets
Thousands of stories where I'm the main hero
Fallen kingdoms
Fallen cultures
I'm happy and free... so free here
Why do we have to run to other worlds
To feel secure
Why does the reality kill my soul
And smother my thoughts
In my mind I build worlds
Which even god couldn't create
And that's why it's good we can dream
yo i could see her lying back in a satin dress
in a room where you do what you dont confess
she was a high pocket rumblin, movin in the ovenin
turntablein turnta b whats the deal
somtimes i ryme slow, somtimes i ryme quick
when its time to get busy out the hat comes a trick
so when the sun goes down you better take care
for find youve been creepin round my back stair
sundown you better take care, if i find youve been creepin round my back stair
shes a queen, lookin mean, and a sailors dream
she gotta come clean, say what she mean
shes gotta fess up, yo is her dress up?
oh indeed, and tell em how it is b, bring em up to speed
somtimes i ryme slow, somtimes i ryme quick
when its time to get busy out the hat comes a trick
its a shame when the game leaves you out the frame
its the love for the sinister losing it again
sometimes i think its a shame when i get feeling better when im feeling no pain
see i could picture every move a man could make
you took steps, you fell in love and thats your first mistake
you in a hole, gotta poll, but you shimmy up the wrong way
hey yo the suns going down and i feel like its my last day
sundown you better take care, if i find youve been creepin round my back stair
sometimes i think its a sin when i feel like im winning when im losing again
yo sometimes the silence is just so valueable sometimes
she lay her head down, pink frown, sad cause shes lost out
a big city hat who goes for minds one trip
day by day with sunshine soak in a room back sunlight
yo i could see her lying back in a satin dress
in a room where you do what you dont confess
sundown (x3)
I could picture every move a man could make
getting lost in a lot theres your first mistake
sundown (x3)
she was looking fast in the faded jeans
now shes a hard lovin woman gotta know what i mean
she stepped up in the spot
she made the spot hot
give it away, give it away yeaaaaa
sometimes i think its a shame when i get feeling better when im feeling no pain
and sundown you better take care, if i find youve been creepin round my back stair
sundown you better take care, if i find youve been creepin round find youve been
creepin my back stair
and sometimes i think its a sin when i think im winning when im losing again
In the horizon by the fall of the dark
Even today appears silver and glossy like my jewel
In the darkness a cold diamond
The touch of dreams
A ceramic flute sounds in your picture
"Why the sun also doesn't shine on the reverse side of the moon?"
I ask myself when your light divides my room into shadows
Lots of clouds in a face of white dust
Imprints of stellar heaven messengers created your face
Lots of old-men know your outlines surely by heart
When they can't sleep in the dark nights
And I'll also grow old and my hair will become a silver shine
As grey as yours
And like all of us
I'll forget the stupid dreams which oppress me
And I'll again silently whisper to the darkness
Scream lost in dry, salty lake
Crystals of sult glitter
The sand is moist and hot
Like human sight calling for help
Before their boats got on the dry place
Dying vicinity and country
Where human's life lost the sense long time ago
Last scream
If there were any trees
Maybe it'd knock off and return to an old-man mouth
Who's leaving
Perhaps dying just like the lake
Imprints of dead fish in salt you walk on
Surely it burnts with the blood of cracked soles
The scream left lost long time ago
With the last drop
The pilgrim is looking for a hidden place
When he's hungry and thirsty
When he longs to wash dust from his legs
He wanders to mountains' foot
Day and night the sky is his vault
The pilgrim is looking for the words
When he's seeing the beauty
That surrounded him
The pilgrim is looking for
The answer to questions
That don't let him sleep
Until he closes his eyes
And falls asleep
The pilgrim is looking for understandin'
Coming through experience
He rises abot the cliff and watches
Sundown in the sea
The pilgrim is looking for
The answer to questions
That don't let him sleep until he closes his eyes and falls asleep
That don't let him sleep
And he was here
Space is his feature, so don't ask what's on the end
Time is his feature, so don't ask what was before
Who clapped his hands, snapped his fingers
Or pulled him out of a hat?
Foolish people are searching in vain
A restaurant on the end of space
All ends where it began... circles in circles
Who made the pulsars dance?
Who let the black holes starve?
Who said one and one is two?
But the speed of light plus anything is still the speed of light
What or who is hiding behind the horizon of occurrances
For all curious he twisted space highways into the point
He's coming from
You turn your head to the sky
You see thousand questions
But even more of them you find looking into mirror
So wait, you human...
One day you'll find answer to your question "WHY"
on the surface, everything seems to make sense
things vibrate and forms all states of matter but go deeper
to the realm of a quantum, and all sense is lost
and forms all states of matter but go deeper
yet somehow - things crystalize
somehow there is form
god doesn't play dice, he plays chess
I am a pawn, that somehow staid
fragile senses feed collective thoughts
but my senses are conspiring
how sweet, I was blind, but now I see
show â" but who watches?
chaos, it would seem, is the ultimate nihilist
somehow there is form
god doesn't play dice, he plays chess
I am a pawn, that somehow staid
the quark can't be predicted
the system should either collapse - or explode!
chaos, it would seem, is the ultimate nihilist
but my senses are conspiring
how sweet, I was blind, but now I see
show - but who watches?
this is happening
we are the code, breaking codes
thats breaking codes, thats breaking codes...
you know the sky before the storm
when the dark sun covers the clouds
when all around us sadness falls
before ligtning kisses the ground
we are scared
we are afraid
you can see the dust swallow the rain
you can see the people run for cover
you can see the dust swallow the rain
you can hear the dark distant thunder
I can feel your fear
you stand frozen in the rain
it's the way it has to be
i'll always be with you my friend
i'll move closer to you... safety we'll find
we'll live through it together like so many times
I can be your tree... your shelter from the storm
You've been asking what will it take
Will I ever again trust your face
Forgive you for past mistakes
Well why should I when my life's been based
On instincts that aren't in your traits
Some things we learned in the race
I see the sound
I will find my way
It's endless it's endless
I see the sound
I will find my way
It's endless it's endless
A lifetime of color gone in one blink of black
I'd rather live in gray than go back
Why go back
And all the pain that clothed me
Reminds me your motives attack
But baby there's no love in that
You said you're dying you're dying to try this
Well maybe you're gonna die trying
Doing just enough just enough to get by
And all these words they leave me exposed
They'll never compare to the word
I've yet to disclose
I see the sound
I will find my way
It's endless it's endless
I see the sound
I will find my way
It's endless it's endless
I will find my way
one touch was enough to join our worlds
every movement of yours is for me a miracle
even though we have never met to join our worlds
I observe your struggle for life with desire to protect you
I will send you my strength, be the sun that brings you home
you change my soul, my inner self
when the heavens calm
and lighten up our faces
I am waiting for you, my son
but still we know about you and we have been one from the beginning, my son
you are the friend of my soul's most secret corner, my son
I observe your struggle for life with desire to protect you
I will send you my strenght, be the sun that brings you home
when I see you floating in that turbulent space
so far and yet just a breath away, away from me
and I am powerlessly gazing at the stars, my son
paralysed by pulsing adrenalin
you will never be alone again
I observe your struggle for life with desire to protect you
I will send you my strenght, be the sun that brings you home
I am awaiting your arrival my chosen son
One day you felt something strange
I wasn't there anymore
The one who used to be so close
I wasn't strong anymore
Like the eagles' wings on which you rode
I was gone so far
Like the eagles' wings on which you flew
To experience life I guess
Overhead flew the eagle and offered again to experience life
Which disappears like sweat dried up on your face
My soul was looking for a change I guess,
Wanting to be wings somewhere else
It felt into the trap of my reality
In self destruction
It wasn't made to be alone
In self destruction
It wanted to feel your love
My other side wanted to return but was scared
It wanted to feel your love
My soul was looking for a change but was scared
It wanted to feel your love
In the whirlwind it didn't know
'cause in the river of fate it was different
So that my soul could be there
Where it's always been
Where it belongs
It needed to hurt, be surrounded by magic
In self destruction
It wasn't made to be alone
In self destruction
It wanted to feel your love
My other side wanted to return but was scared
It wanted to feel your love
My soul was looking for a change but was scared
I'm just laughing... why do you cry all the time?
I'm standing here upright... don't look down all the time
I'm alive... why do you die all the time?
I want to fight... do you enjoy watching?
I'm flying... so why are you crawling?
I wonder... why do you stand aside, as if...
Torpid, sleepy, weak and paralysed
The end of joy?
The end of life?
The end of summer and the beginning of winter?
Think of the difference between us...
I keep of walking and don't turn around
Why did you turn back to the object?
My eyes are open...
Why do you wear sunglasses at night?
I don't confide in strangers... why are you scared?
I was never afraid to turn my head against the wall...
And that's why I'm not like you...
Future love
Always I walk in the dark deep forest
To the places where
I saw you for the first time
But I don't know how should
I show you my feelings
That came here now
To the dark empire of trees
I lay down into dead moss
And I wait just for your touch
And in cold mornings
I was coming back to the people
Whom I couldn't understand
Our mind are entwined in stars
Entwined in new extasies
In the morning you turn
The stars in your palm
Your throw them
On the velvet sky like a gambler
You smooth them with your palm
Maybe you're trying to read them
You smooth them with your palm
To read them like blindman
But the stars stick in your palm
And you wake up again
You let dream stray
Among them, among dice
On whose upper side
Your Lesser Bear will shine
Maybe dance in a circle
And be surrounded by dots
To fumble step by step in a circle
And be surrounded by dots
A little is enough for you to read
Masses of snow high above my head
I didn't know that snow can be black
I'm lying on icy ground... the end is coming
dark derides me
Black cold makes my finger sway
I let my tears flow down my face
long time ago I forgot how taste my voice
I gave up that fight
Only occasional laughter of bats
and roar of falling avalanche above my head
are raping that silence here
and I fumble in the dark... the labyrinth without the walls
I'm revolving that scene in my mind
when I was falling to the depth with sound of thunders
stuned by fear with the hope in my heart
they say hope dies last
Long time I crawled
Long time I begged for help
I have no power to live anymore
life became unbearable
there's nothing worse than loneliness
I'm spending my end without pain
the feeling, when you know, there's nothing that can help you
