La Veronica

The Veronica

La Veronica

It wasn't filmed in Portugal, that wasn't in her planNo se filmó en Portugal, eso no estaba en su plan
She unpacked her bags, lit a cigarette, and went down to the cityElla deshizo valijas, prendió un cigarrillo y bajó a la ciudad
Rome wasn't so bad, I must admit, not bad at allRoma no estaba tan mal, debo admitir nada mal
Something keeps the spell, she thought and let herself goAlgo mantiene el hechizo pensó y se dejó llevar
For a guy walking alone down Calvary StreetPor un tipo que bajaba solo por la calle del calvario
Real sequence shot, I just have to walkPlano secuencia real, solo debo caminar
If she was sure of something, it was that her Veronica wouldn't crySi de algo estaba segura era que su Veronica no iba a llorar
Afternoon of crucifixion, they nail the son of GodTarde de crucifixión, clavan al hijo de dios
She keeps the script in a yellow bagGuarda el guión en un bolso amarillo
And throws herself into the sun, to danceY se tira al sol, a bailar
All lives fell into the seaTodas las vidas cayeron al mar
And it's so smooth to see themY es tan suave verlas
All lives fell into the seaTodas las vidas cayeron al mar
And they go, and they go, and they goY se van, y se van, y se van

She wanted to make him so happyElla quiso hacerlo tan feliz

Exterior, day, take 22Exterior, día, toma 22
And the sweat of Christ drawn on a clothY el sudor de Cristo dibujado sobre un manto

All lives fell into the seaTodas las vidas cayeron al mar
And it's so smooth to see themY es tan suave verlas
All lives fell into the seaTodas las vidas cayeron al mar
And they go, and they go, and they goY se van, y se van, y se van

She wanted to make him so happyElla quiso hacerlo tan feliz
He wanted love, not an actressEl quiso un amor y no una actriz
She wanted to make him so happyElla quiso hacerlo tan feliz
He and his heart of ivoryEl y su corazion de marfil
Designed to resistDiseñada a resistir
The charms of jasmineLos encantos del jazmín
I don't know whyYo no sé, por qué
He chose her sweet skinEligió su dulce piel
Maybe because he saw her so aloneFue quizás porque la vió tan sola
I don't even know whyYo no sé ni por qué
He chose that womanEligió aquella mujer
She just went crazyNo hizo más que volverse loca
And the sweat of Christ drawn on a clothY el sudor de Cristo dibujado sobre un manto

All lives fell into the seaTodas las vidas cayeron al mar
And it's so smooth to see themY es tan suave verlas
All lives fell into the seaTodas las vidas cayeron al mar
And they go, and they go, and they goY se van, y se van, y se van
She wanted to make him so happyElla quiso hacerlo tan feliz
He wanted love, not an actressEl quiso un amor y no una actriz
She wanted to make him so happy...Ella quiso hacerlo tan feliz...
Exterior, day, take 22Exterior, día, toma 22
And the sweat of Christ drawn on a clothY el sudor de cristo dibujado sobre un manto
