Quisiera

Tonight my words warm you upEsta noche te calientan mis palabras
While I sing on your neckMientras canto en tu nuca

This is how this story beginsAsí es como empieza esta historia
A cold and torrential nightUna noche fría y caudalosa
That's in the middle of my memoryEso en la mitad de mi memoria

Your beautiful lookTu mirada linda
I would like to be the scab and you the woundQuisiera ser la costra y tú la herida
I would like to be the iris, your pupilQuisiera ser el iris, tu pupila

Amidst so much warEntre tanta guerra
I would like to be peace and you my shieldQuisiera ser la paz y tu mi escudo

Your rock, your lairTu roca, tu guarida

I would like to be moles on your skinQuisiera ser lunares en tu piel
