Sabor Salado

Salty Flavor

Sabor Salado

I saw you pass by last night like a lightTe vi pasar anoche como luz
Shattered by the stone of yesterdayRota por la pedrada del ayer
Leaving a trail of water and carnationDejando un rastro de agua y de clavel
Without stirring the airSin agitar el aire
I saw you pale against the lightTe vi palidecer a contraluz
Or did my eyes deceive me again?O me engañaron los ojos otra vez
Because you saw mePorque me viste
Or you pretended to see meO me fingiste ver

Damn, and I wish I was wrongCaramba, y yo quisiera equivocarme
But I felt a salty flavorPero sentí un sabor salado
Like cut lipsComo de labios cortados
When I was shavingAl afeitarme

You sat on a bench like it wasTe sentaste en un banco como si
As if the night hadn’t changedLa noche no hubiera cambiado
After the world came to a stopDespués que el mundo se paró
And I was tripping outY yo alucinado
My mask of laughter followed youMi máscara de risa te siguió
The steps of a happy womanEl paso de mujer feliz
Who knows no other painQue no conoce otro dolor
Than just livingQue el de vivir

Damn, and I wish I was wrongCaramba, y yo quisiera equivocarme
But I felt a salty flavorPero sentí un sabor salado
Like cut lipsComo de labios cortados
When I was shavingAl afeitarme
