Tan Común

So Ordinary

Tan Común

I see you walking through the crowdTe veo caminar entre la multitud
With that laugh that nobody notices hereCon esa risa que nadie nota aquí
Your hands play with the air without thinkingTus manos juegan con el aire sin pensar
And I get lost trying to imagineY yo me pierdo tratando de imaginar

What secrets do you hide behind your gaze?Qué secretos escondes tras tu mirar
What unspoken stories does no one want to hear?Qué historias calladas nadie quiere escuchar
I try to write your name in every songIntento escribir tu nombre en cada canción
But it sounds just like any other voicePero suena igual que cualquier otra voz

I wanted to paint you in colors that don't existQuise pintarte de colores que no existen
Make your routine something sublimeHacer de tu rutina algo sublime
But your footsteps are lost among the othersPero tus pasos se pierden entre los demás
And I keep trying to get you to really look at meY yo sigo intentando que me mires de verdad

And you, so ordinaryY tú, tan común
And I wanted you to shine just for meY yo queriendo que brilles solo para mí
You, so ordinaryTú, tan común
And I was trapped in a world that didn't see you like thatY yo atrapado en un mundo que no te vio así
There's no magic in your walk, or at least it seems that wayNo hay magia en tu andar, o al menos parece
But I still see stars where nobody else doesPero yo sigo viendo estrellas donde nadie las ve

Your words fall like any songTus palabras caen como cualquier canción
Like leaves that the wind carries away for no reasonComo hojas que el viento arrastra sin razón
Every gesture of yours seems so simpleCada gesto tuyo parece tan sencillo
But I build worlds where you are the lightPero yo construyo mundos donde tú eres el brillo

I invent your days, your laughter, your walkMe invento tus días, tus risas, tu andar
Every detail that no one could noticeCada detalle que nadie podría notar
I try to make your shadow a faithful landscapeIntento hacer de tu sombra un paisaje fiel
But the light fades and you become yourself again, as normal as everPero la luz se escapa y tú vuelves a ser él, tan normal

I wanted to paint you in colors that don't existQuise pintarte de colores que no existen
Make your routine something sublimeHacer de tu rutina algo sublime
But your footsteps are lost among the othersPero tus pasos se pierden entre los demás
And I keep trying to get you to really look at meY yo sigo intentando que me mires de verdad

And you, so ordinaryY tú, tan común
And I wanted you to shine just for meY yo queriendo que brilles solo para mí
You, so ordinaryTú, tan común
And I was trapped in a world that didn't see you like thatY yo atrapado en un mundo que no te vio así
There's no magic in your walk, or at least it seems that wayNo hay magia en tu andar, o al menos parece
But I still see stars where nobody else doesPero yo sigo viendo estrellas donde nadie las ve

Perhaps it's a mistake to adore you like thisTal vez sea un error adorarte así
To give something simple a value that no one else seesDarle a lo sencillo un valor que nadie más ve
But my heart insists on not giving upPero mi corazón insiste en no rendirse
Even though you remain so ordinaryAunque tú sigas siendo, tan común

And you, so ordinaryY tú, tan común
And I wanted you to shine just for meY yo queriendo que brilles solo para mí
You, so ordinaryTú, tan común
And I was trapped in a world that didn't see you like thatY yo atrapado en un mundo que no te vio así
There's no magic in your walk, or at least it seems that wayNo hay magia en tu andar, o al menos parece
But I still see stars where nobody else doesPero yo sigo viendo estrellas donde nadie las ve
