Me está dando cuenta, lo veo ahoraIt's dawning on me, I see it now
El mundo en el que te metiste, no en lo que creí haber encontrado, yThe world you came into, not what I thought I found, and
Lo veo claramente, viniste a míI see it clearly, you came to me
Con el cielo más despejado, una voz que no podía creerWith the clearest skies, a voice that I could not believe
Lo dijiste despacio, lo dijiste verdadYou said it slowly, you said it true
Me preguntaste por qué estaba ahí en la luz contigoYou asked me why she was there in the light with you
Y ella no puede hacerlo, no es su lugarAnd she can't do that, it's not her place
Me devolviste el eco de lo que habías aprendido a decirYou echoed back to me what you had learned to say

Podría encontrarlo, claro que lo veoI could find it, plain to see
¿Por qué iba a esperar que pudiera serlo alguna vez, yWhy would I expect that it could ever be, and
¿Te he fallado y me he caído?Did I fail you and did I fall
Espero que podamos encontrar un lugar cuando estábamos solos yI hope that we can find a place when we were all alone and
Podría explicarlo, no es asíI could explain it, it's not like that
Ya sabes, tu madre, todo lo que te preguntaronYou know your mother, all that was asked
Y ahora estás conmigo, mi único hijoAnd now you're with me, my only son
Mi única hija, la únicaMy only daughter, the only one

Leí tus historias a altas horas de la nocheI read your stories late at night
De lo que hizo y cómo conquistó toda la luz, yOf what he did and how he conquered all the light, and
Era tan inteligente, y era fuerteHe was so smart, and he was strong
Tenía todas las respuestas, y nunca se equivocó, yHe had all the answers, and he was never wrong, and
Era el enemigo, era la estrella, yHe was the enemy, he was the star, and
Era un amigo y estaba a cargo, yHe was a friend, and he was in charge, and
Era guapo, el jefe de la manadaHe was good looking, the head of the pack
¿Y dónde estaba ella?And where was she?

No estaba en ninguna parte, estaba perdidaShe was nowhere, she was lost
Se estaba escondiendo, no lo estabaShe was hiding, she was not
Era bonita, era el premioShe was pretty, she was the prize
Ella era la gloria, estaba dentroShe was the glory, she was inside
Y era belleza, era una niñaAnd she was beauty, she was a child
Y llevaba vestidos, sus ojos eran anchosAnd she wore dresses, her eyes were wide
Su cabello era gloria, los trenes eran largosHer hair was glory, the trains were long
Y ella siempre fueAnd she was always

Por fuera mirando hacia adentroOn the outside looking in
Por fuera mirando hacia adentroOn the outside looking in
Por fuera mirando hacia adentroOn the outside looking in

No podría estar de vuelta a donde vineCouldn't be back where I came
No se podía perder bajo la lluviaCouldn't be lost in the rain
No podría volver a ponérselaCouldn't be wearing that again
No podría estar donde deberías haber sido salvadoCouldn't be where you should've been saved
No podría estar caminando de regreso de los parques en la oscuridad tarde y soloCouldn't be walking back from parks in dark at late and all alone
No podía estar donde estabaCouldn't be where I was
¿Puedes llamarme cuando estés a salvo y en casa yCan you just call me when you're safe and home and
No vayas allí, no esperes por la nocheDon't you go there, don't you wait at night
No confías y no esperesDon't you trust and don't you wait
Y no estés solo cuando conduces, yAnd don't you be alone when you're driving, and
No lo haces, no, ¿verdad?Don't you, don't you, don't you
¿No es así, no, no lo sabes?Don't you, don't you, don't you know that
El mundo no estaba hecho para las chicas sino para los chicos, yThe world was not made for the girls but for the boys, and
Sé que está mal, no, sé que no está bienI know it's wrong, no I know it's not right
Tus ojos pueden decir mil mentiras que no puedo encontrar, yYour eyes can tell a thousand lies that I just can not find, and
No lo haces, no, ¿verdad?Don't you, don't you, don't you
¿No es así, no, no lo sabes?Don't you, don't you, don't you know that
No te quedes ahíDon't you stay there
