Parte a Parte

What part of your sadness did I miss?¿qué parte me perdí de tu tristeza?
What part of your charm gives me chills?¿qué parte de tu encanto me da frio
What part of my shadow bored you?Que parte de mi sombra te aburría?
What part didn’t I get about being ready?¿qué parte no entendí de estamos listos?
What part of your tears are crying for me?¿qué parte de tus lágrimas me lloran?
What part of this war is hand-to-hand?¿qué parte de esta guerra es cuerpo a cuerpo?
What part of yesterday did we pay dearly?¿qué parte del ayer pagamos caro?
What part of the day before yesterday is priceless?¿qué parte del anteayer no tiene precio?
We have to let come what’s coming,Hay que dejar venir lo que se viene,
And let go of what’s leaving,Y dejar pasar lo que se va,
When the tide slowly goes down,Cuando despacio baje la marea,
We’ll see who swam nakedVeremos quién nadaba desnudo
And who bled without bleeding. (2 times)Y quien sangraba sin sangrar. (2 veces)
What part of the shadows will we keep?¿qué parte de las sombras guardaremos
What part of the past didn’t we step on?¿qué parte del pasado no pisamos?
What part of the shipwreck did we share?¿qué parte del naufragio repartimos?
What part is love and which is fear?¿qué parte es el amor y cual espanto
I look at those old photos in Buzios,Miro esas fotos viejas en buzios,
It’s like seeing a dream backlit.Es como ver un sueño a tras luz
I won’t be the one to drive in twiceNo seré yo quien clave dos veces
The last nail in this coffin.El último clavo en este ataúd.
We have to let come what’s coming,Hay que dejar venir lo que se viene,
And let go of what’s leaving,Y dejar pasar lo que se va,
When the tide slowly goes down,Cuando despacio baje la marea,
We’ll see who swam nakedVeremos quién nadaba desnudo
And who bled without bleeding.Y quien sangraba sin sangrar.
