Hay Un Universo de Pequeñas Cosas

There is a Universe of Little Things

Hay Un Universo de Pequeñas Cosas

Because there are stars that shinePorque hay estrellas que brillan
But are not seen?Pero no se ven?
And there are people I never got toY existe gente que nunca llego a
KnowConocer
Even though I can see themAunque los pueda ver
They are the wounded blues of dawnSon los azules heridos del amanecer
They detach from the skySe desprenden del cielo
Scratching me, scratching you, scratching youArañandome, arañandote, arañandote

There is a universeHay un universo
Of little thingsDe pequeñas cosas
That only awakenQue solo se despiertan
When you name themCuando tu las nombras

Everything that is beautifulTodo lo que es bello
Is waiting for your gazeEsta esperando tu mirada
I have a caressTengo una caricia
That spills without youQue sin ti se me derrama

There is a universeHay un universo
Made of little thingsHecho de pequeñas cosas
That fly over your headQue vuelan sobre tu cabeza
If you blow themSi las soplas
There are sunsetsHay atardeceres
That never finish settingQue no acaban de ponerse
There is an entire seaHay un mar entero
Summarizing in your mouthResumiendose en tu boca

And I swear my life that I sailed through itY yo te juro vida mía que lo surque
Ask your skinPregúntale a tu piel
Don't you remember? My companionYa no te acuerdas? Compañerita mía
When I spoke to youCuando te hable
Of my universe, do you see it?De mi universo ves?
You didn't believe me, did you?No me creías, no?
That there are cornersQue existen los rincones
Where love hidesDonde el amor esconde

An entire universe of little thingsTodo un universo de pequeñas cosas
She is waiting for me in itEn el me esta esperando ella
From one cloud to anotherDe una nube a otra
There is no promiseNo hay una promesa
That resists those doubtsQue resista aquellas dudas
There is no caressNo hay una caricia
That can reach that moonQue le pueda a aquella luna

And I swear my life that since yesterdayY yo te juro vida mía que desde ayer
The moon is, it's on your skinLa luna esta, esta en tu piel
I swear my life, I will find youYo te lo juro vida mía, te encontrare
Next to that spaceJunto al espacio aquel
You and me and the sky, the skyTu y yo y el cielo, el cielo
That there are cornersQue existen los rincones
Where love hidesDonde el amor esconde

Because there are stars that shine out there, I knowPorque hay estrellas que brillan por ahí, lo se
And there are places I could never knowY existen sitios que nunca pude conocer
So come see, with me that sunPor eso ven a ver, conmigo el sol aquel
Of silver splashing the seasDe plata salpicandonos los mares
Of silver splashing, the seasDe plata salpicandonos, los mares
Of little thingsDe pequeñas cosas

There is a universeHay un universo
Of little thingsDe pequeñas cosas
In which the bitter onesEn el que los amargos
Braid flowersTrenzan flores
To adorn bordersPa' adornar fronteras
There is a gazeHay una mirada
That whispers behind meQue susurra a mis espaldas
When secretsCuando los secretos
Are either told orO se dicen o
SilentSe callan

If I swear my lifeSi yo te juro vida mía
That I can makeQue puedo hacer
From this universe for you a good oneDe este universo para ti uno bien
And you swear my lifeY tu me juras vida mía
That it can beQue puede ser
You, and me and the sky, the sky, that oneTu, y yo y el cielo, el cielo, aquel

And I swear my lifeY yo te juro vida mía
That I can make from this universe for you a good oneQue puedo hacer de este universo para ti uno bien
And you swear my lifeY tu me juras vida mía
That it can beQue puede ser
That there are cornersQue existen los rincones
The afternoons that setLas tardes que se ponen

Because there are stars that shinePorque hay estrellas que brillan
But are not seenPero no se ven
And there are places I could never knowY existen sitios que nunca pude conocer
