Fortunas de la Desgracia

Anna Waronker

Fortunes of Misfortune

We were just girls
When we looked into each other's eyes
We owned the world
We didn't know we'd have to die for it
You knew I'd have to quit
And I knew I'd never see you again

We were just girls
When we kissed each other's lips
We didn't know that it meant something
More to me and to you
You had to go when I told you no
And I knew I'd never see you again

We were not friends
It was different than that
We had a love 'til the end
That was beautiful and dying
Who could have told?
The fortunes of the misfortunes we would hold?
And I never thought that we would grow old together

You wanted to be beautiful
You thought you were a star
And now that everything has disappeared
You are who you are

We were just girls
And we never understood
That this is the world
Where things are rarely rarely good
And I knew you'd have to go
The moment that I told you no
And I knew I'd never see you again
I'd never see you again, ever again

You wanted to be a big big star
Now you are who you are
You wanted to be a big big star
Now you are who you are
You wanted to be a big big star
Now you are who you are
You wanted to be a big big star
Now you are who you are

Fortunas de la Desgracia

Éramos solo chicas
Cuando nos miramos a los ojos
Éramos dueñas del mundo
No sabíamos que tendríamos que morir por él
Sabías que tendría que renunciar
Y yo sabía que nunca te volvería a ver

Éramos solo chicas
Cuando nos besamos los labios
No sabíamos que significaba algo
Más para mí y para ti
Tuviste que irte cuando te dije que no
Y supe que nunca te volvería a ver

No éramos amigas
Era diferente a eso
Tuvimos un amor hasta el final
Que era hermoso y moribundo
¿Quién lo hubiera dicho?
¿Las fortunas de las desgracias que sostendríamos?
Y nunca pensé que envejeceríamos juntas

Querías ser hermosa
Pensabas que eras una estrella
Y ahora que todo ha desaparecido
Eres quien eres

Éramos solo chicas
Y nunca entendimos
Que este es el mundo
Donde las cosas rara vez son buenas
Y supe que tendrías que irte
En el momento en que te dije que no
Y supe que nunca te volvería a ver
Nunca te volvería a ver, nunca más

Querías ser una gran gran estrella
Ahora eres quien eres
Querías ser una gran gran estrella
Ahora eres quien eres
Querías ser una gran gran estrella
Ahora eres quien eres
Querías ser una gran gran estrella
Ahora eres quien eres
