Postscript

Postdata

You were throwing the diceTú tirabas los dados
I mocked luckYo burlaba la suerte
I had the final wordYo la última palabra
You had a 'but' to addTú un pero que añadir

Being so happyDe tanto ser felices
I forgot to love youSe me olvidó quererte
I was looking for a treasureYo buscaba un tesoro
You wanted a lootTú querías un botín

I was a blessed skinny guyYo era un flaco bendito
By playful groupiesPor groupies juguetonas
You the exquisite delicacyTu el manjar exquisito
From a king's tableDe la mesa de un rey

I was the worn troubadourYo el trovador cascado
You the great prima donnaTu la gran prima donna
You a queen without a crownTu reina sin corona
Me outside the lawYo fuera de la ley

The song I write for youLa canción que te escribo
Is nothing but a postscriptNo es más que una postdata
If you dance it with someone elseSi la bailas con otro
Don't remember meNo te acuerdes de mí

When you left meCuando me abandonaste
I embroidered a silver bridgeBordé un puente de plata
You weren't that muchNi tú eras para tanto
You weren't that muchNi tú eras para tanto
And I'm not for youNi yo soy para ti

It's not that I'm sad, damn it, it's that I rememberNo es que esté triste, carajo, es que me acuerdo

You were signing peaceTú firmabas la paz
I was seeking revengeYo buscaba el desquite
There was a miscalculation, I thoughtHubo un error de cálculo, pensé
Between us twoNosotros dos

You were looking for a husbandTú buscabas marido
I found a hiding placeYo encontré un escondite
Your shadow is a sin of imaginationTu sombra es un pecado de la imaginación

When I have forgotten youCuando te haya olvidado
I will still miss youAún te echaré de menos
And I'll raise the penultimate toast to your healthY alzaré la penúltima copa a tu salud

You forced me to choose between you and poisonMe obligaste a elegir entre tú y el veneno
I flipped a coinYo tiré una moneda
And it came up tailsAl aire y salió cruz

The song I write for youLa canción que te escribo
Is nothing but a postscriptNo es más que una postdata
If you dance it with someone elseSi la bailas con otro
Don't remember meNo te acuerdes de mí

When you left meCuando me abandonaste
I embroidered a silver bridgeBordé un puente de plata
You weren't that muchNi tú eras para tanto
You weren't that muchNi tú eras para tanto
And I'm not for youNi yo soy para ti
