The Call

El Llamado

What could love be?¿Qué será el amor?
Recently I think there isn't so much idiocyRecientemente, creo que no tanta idiotez
Although I don't deny that the moment you touch meAunque no niego que al momento que me tocas
You revive paradoxes that have once stolen my sleepRevives paradojas que el sueño me han robado alguna vez

I'll summarize it like thisLo resumo así
Meeting you was never in my plansConocerte no estuvo nunca en mí
But I answered the callPero atendí el llamado
Denying it looks bad on you, and you were calling meNegarlo queda mal en ti y tú me estabas llamando

I hide my past under a veilPasado me oculto bajo un velo
Between failed romances and more haircutsEntre amores fallidos y más cortes de pelo
My character evolvingMi personaje evolucionando
Increasing possibilities for sharing spacesAumentando posibilidades de compartir espacios

When I'm with youCuando estoy contigo
I am deeply grateful for the kindness of this giftAgradezco a manos llenas la bondad del presente
Everything was so boringTodo era tan aburrido
You came, you made it eloquentViniste, lo hiciste elocuente

Your call was so brightTu llamado era tan brillante
That it was impossible not to attend to youQue era imposible no atenderte
I just answered the callYo solo respondí el llamado
That's all I didFue todo lo que hice
Follow the order to love youSeguir la orden de quererte

And so I did, I loved youY así lo hice, te amé
I did, I loved youAsí lo hice, te amé

In the world we tend to admire those who had the privilege of meeting someone elseEn el mundo solemos admirar a quienes tuvieron el privilegio de coincidir con alguien más
McCartney with Lennon, for example, and Lennon with YokoMccartney con lennon, por ejemplo, y Lennon con Yoko
Without having to askSin tener que preguntar
I came here to coincide with everything and you were calling me, I insistYo vine aquí a coincidir con todo y tú me estabas llamando, insisto
I only answered the call to end up in this same room with youYo solo atendí el llamado para terminar en este mismo cuarto contigo

And tonight the night surrounds usY hoy la noche nos rodea
And your legs look fluorescentY tus piernas lucen fluorescentes
I perceive you as blatantly beautifulTe percibo descaradamente bella
Even if you deny getting dressed up to see meAunque niegues arreglarte para verme
But we'd be a couple of idiotsPero seríamos un par de idiotas
If we pretend that nothing is really happening hereSi fingimos que no ocurre nada aquí realmente

When I'm with youCuando estoy contigo
I am deeply grateful for the kindness of this giftAgradezco a manos llenas la bondad del presente
Everything was so boringTodo era tan aburrido
You came, you made it eloquentViniste, lo hiciste elocuente
Your call was so brightTu llamado era tan brillante
That it was impossible not to attend to youQue era imposible no atenderte
I just answered the callYo solo respondí el llamado
That's all I didFue todo lo que hice
Follow the order to love youSeguir la orden de quererte

And so I did, I loved youY así lo hice, te amé
I did, I loved youAsí lo hice, te amé

Your call was so brightTu llamado era tan brillante
That it was impossible not to attend to youQue era imposible no atenderte
I just answered the callYo solo respondí el llamado
That's all I didFue todo lo que hice
Follow the order to love youSeguir la orden de quererte

Follow the order to love youSeguir la orden de quererte
