Mientras Tanto

In the Meantime

Mientras Tanto

It's gotten late one more afternoonSe nos ha hecho tarde una tarde más
Stuttering, you say you're leavingTartamudeando dices que te vas
You've told me so many times and this one seems realMe lo has dicho tantas veces y esta parece de verdad
We bet everything and everything wasn't enoughApostamos todo y todo no bastó
We were like a Lego that fell apartFuimos como un lego que se desarmó
And putting the pieces back together, they don't fitY al juntar las piezas ya no encajan
We go back to being twoVolvemos a ser dos

I know nothing is like beforeSé que nada es como antes
And I know it's my turn to forget youY sé que me toca olvidarte

In the meantime, I'm going to imagineMientras tanto voy a imaginarme
That tonight we're going to have dinnerQue esta noche vamos a cenar
That I put on your shoes to kiss youQue me subo en tus zapatos pa' besarte
And then on the couch, you won't let go of meY después en el sofá no me soltarás

As long as I don't forget you, you're so mineMientras no te olvide eres tan mío
If I breathe, it's thanks to the painSi respiro es gracias al dolor
And ripping you out won't be easyY arrancarte no va a ser sencillo
Like telling the Sun to turn off its heatComo decirle al Sol que apague su calor

I can't either, oh oh oh, oh oh oh ohTampoco puedo yo, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
I can't either, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh ohTampoco puedo yo, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh

It's been four months since you're not hereHace cuatro meses que no estás aquí
And all my clothes still smell like youY toda mi ropa sigue oliendo a ti
You left Bob Dylan's record that reminds you of me, hm hmTe dejaste el disco de Bob Dylan que te recuerda a mí, hm hm

I know nothing is like beforeSé que nada es como antes
And I know it's my turn to forget youY sé que me toca olvidarte

But in the meantime, I'm going to imaginePero mientras tanto voy a imaginarme
That tonight we're going to have dinnerQue esta noche vamos a cenar
That I put on your shoes to kiss youQue me subo en tus zapatos pa' besarte
And then on the couch, you won't let go of meY después en el sofá no me soltarás

As long as I don't forget you, you're so mineMientras no te olvide eres tan mío
If I breathe, it's thanks to the painSi respiro es gracias al dolor
And ripping you out won't be easyY arrancarte no va a ser sencillo
Like telling the Sun to turn off its heatComo decirle al Sol que apague su calor

I can't either, oh oh oh, oh oh oh ohTampoco puedo yo, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh ohOh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh

In the meantime, I'm going to imagineMientras tanto voy a imaginarme
That tonight we're going to have dinnerQue esta noche vamos a cenar
That I put on your shoes to kiss youQue me subo en tus zapatos pa' besarte
And then on the couch, you won't let go of meY después en el sofá no me soltarás

As long as I don't forget you, you're so mineMientras no te olvide eres tan mío
If I breathe, it's thanks to the painSi respiro es gracias al dolor
And ripping you out won't be easyY arrancarte no va a ser sencillo
Like telling the Sun to turn off its heatComo decirle al Sol que apague su calor

I can't either, oh oh oh, oh oh oh ohTampoco puedo yo, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh
I can't either, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh ohTampoco puedo yo, oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
