El Dia

The Day

El Dia

What would he gain by missing the starsQue ganara con perderse las estrellas
And hesitating with the moon that doesn't answer himY titubear con la luna que no le contesta
What would he gain by dreaming that it's still springQue ganara con soñar que aun es primavera
And being in a world where there is no sadnessY con estar en un mundo donde no hay tristeza

His skill is so perfectSu destreza es tan perfecta
That the hours don't affect himQue las horas no lo afectan
He has a cigarette for breakfast while I admire himSe desayuna un cigarro mientras yo lo admiro
And contemplate his greatnessY contemplo su grandeza
Value is what matters when there is no loveEl valor es lo que cuenta cuando no hay amor

What a way to start his day like thisQue forma de empezar así su día
With that smirk on his faceCon aquella mueca encima
That doesn't cover the soul not even the tearsQue no cubre el alma ni siquiera el llanto
That he concealed for meQue por mi encubrió

What a way to spend life like thisQue forma de pasarse así la vida
With calm adrift and without exchanging wordsCon la calma a la deriva y sin cruzar palabras
He confesses everything that was hiddenMe confiesa todo lo que se ocultó
What a way to start the dayQue forma de empezar el día.
