Influenced by Juan Luis Guerra 4.40, Silvio Rodríguez, Luis Segura, Pat Metheny. Mateo Céspedes spent over a decade in his family's Santiago woodworking shop, learning the stories of his neighbors by repairing their broken furniture. At 32, he traded his tools for a requinto guitar, building sophisticated bachatas with a carpenter's precision and a poet's heart. On his desk, he still keeps his grandfather's favorite chisel, a reminder to build songs that, like a well-made chair, are meant to last.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pasan las cinco en Cienfuegos, huele a cedro y a café.
La garlopa duerme sobre el banco, y yo no sé por qué,
con el índice dibujo sobre el polvo de la sierra
tres letras que arman un rompecabezas que me aferra.

[Chorus]
(Coro) Pongo tu nombre en el aserrín, Ana.
(Respuesta) (Y lo borro con la mano)
(Coro) Es una maña de esta gana terca y sana.
(Respuesta) (Un secreto de artesano)

[Verse 2]
Me acuerdo de esa tarde, la de marzo, aquí en la puerta.
Señalaste una caoba con una grieta casi muerta.
"Esa veta torcida", dijiste, "la hace de verdad".
Y yo lijé esa frase hasta guardarla en mi mitad.

[Chorus]
(Coro) Pongo tu nombre en el aserrín, Ana.
(Respuesta) (Y lo borro con la mano)
(Coro) Es una maña de esta gana terca y sana.
(Respuesta) (Un secreto de artesano)

[Bridge]
Intento sacar la escuadra pa' trazar una línea recta,
pero la curva de tu espalda es la medida perfecta.

[Chorus]
(Coro) Pongo tu nombre en el aserrín, Ana.
(Respuesta) (Y lo borro con la mano)
(Coro) Es una maña de esta gana terca y sana.
(Respuesta) (Un secreto de artesano)

[Outro]
Solo aserrín... y la forma de tu nombre en mi palma.
