Immortal

I want to be immortal
like your face in my nights
like a sphinx kiss to the moon
like a fat bronze frog in an Indian pond.

I want to be eternal
like your eyes in my soul
like your words in the sky
...but everybody dies.

A.

Do you want to dance with me?

If I promise romance...
will you come for a ride?

In a lovers heaven
we keep our promises, at last.

In a lovers heaven
we are tied to the past.

Que los amores cobardes nunca llegan al cielo.

A.

Not so in love.

When any of us
perform our duties (with or without feelings)
-we may secretly enjoy-
or...we could stare at the ceiling.

Is in no way an obligation
to kiss after crossing the line
(could be taken as a sign of admiration)
but without love that's just not fine.

I don't know what more to say about it
In the game of love
we may win, we may fall
but if we settle for the second best
We're only human after all.

Turn back time.

If you could
turn back the clock
will I still be part of your story?
Really?

Because you are part of mine
with or without clocks.

La cuadra ruda.

A veces nos da con extrañar
a la gente de la cuadra ruda
-a los malos- los que nos han olvidado-
los que nos han arrojado cenizas en los ojos.

Y es que el corazon cierra la razon
y le da con recordar a los extraños
a los que habitan en el lado oscuro de la luna
los que nunca se acuerdan de nosotros.

Recordamos sus buenos momentos
recordamos que buenos fueron
-cuando fueron buenos-
y les hechamos de menos.

Es como cuando las bandas de rock
deciden hacer baladas
las hacen mas intensas que cualquiera
asi es cuando una de las malas te quiere.

La mala te quiere con mas intensidad
que todas las buenas juntas.

Y eso es asi.

Our love
is far from home
comes from another continent
and another date.

When the times come
(maybe miles away)
I'll explain everything
-it's better that way-.

They probably heard a rumor
and someone has to pay
-you can't be alone-
then ran away.

Were just two
divided by
Zero.

Zero.


A.

Hall of fame.

The hall of fame of my heart is full.
Is complete and full,
...full of pictures of you.

Pictures of you smiling
Pictures of you angry with me
Pictures of you staring at me
Pictures of your eternal charm.

And there's no space for anybody else.

Go figure.

A.

Y que de ti?

Salgo al sol cada mañana
y siento que me haces falta
que andas por algun lugar
pensando en mi, como yo en ti.

Y te busco.
Te busco debajo de un arbol
-en los ojos de un gato pardo-
mientras su cola se mece lentamente.

Te busco donde se que no estas
en el calor de las calles
en las terrazas desiertas de la ciudad...
en la cancion "Immortal" de marina.

Te busco por doquier
-no se nada de ti-
Y que de ese gran amor?
Y que de ti?

A.

De carbon y piedra.

De carbon y piedra
tengo ya el corazon
sin que se aviste siquiera
un trecho de buen amor.

De carbon y piedra...y de alga vegetal
-que mas quisiera, que mas quisiera-
que diera cien vueltas en las nubes,
que se hunda en ultramar.

De carbon negro y quemado
de piedra, roca dura y fria
combinacion exitosa en Agosto
donde el mas cuerdo desvaria.

De piedra seca y pesada
donde no florece un clavel,
de carbon denso y cansado
que aun escribe "amor" en papel.

Y es lo que queda de un gran amante
Y es lo que queda de un gran amor.
No somos la mitad de lo que fuimos
y seguimos sonriendo de cara al sol.

A.

Life is short.

What are words for?
Can we use them for healing?
For those who have a broken heart
For those who've lost the joy.

What are words for?

Can we use them to turn back the clock?
Is there any magic spell to do that?
For those walking on the sunshine
with old pictures in their pockets.

What are words for?

Can we use them to fix our mistakes?
If I promise romance will you come for a ride?

Words are endless.
Life is short.

Our chance.

It take lots of honesty
integrity and common sense
to accept that for some things in life
we've just missed our good chance.

And that's irrevocable
eternal, undeniable
...and written in stone
it is something clearly over, and done.

We may spend the rest of our lives
trying to barely understand
how good things went wrong
but that's just the way it is, and it's done.

Now we have to forget
now we know what life's about
and look to our past like a bird
taking a glance to distant clouds.

We are the ones to be forsaken
we are the ones to be forgotten
game is over for love, there's no more
we should leave the stage and walk out the door.

And someday - in the mist of time-
when they ask me if I knew you
I'll smile and say
You were a friend of mine.

Es tan corto el amor...y tan largo el olvido.

Hoy daria yo la vida por volverte a ver.
