Counter Spark
You could be sad but never torn
You saw the light when it was on
You never turned or looked away
Your eyes were focused, mine were grey
Your sentences were concentrated
You made your points so understated
Where I would mumble, you would say
Your eyes were focused, mine were grey
I made up conversations with my symbolic language
Saying everybody wants to be like you
But I'd rather fall in love with you
You got the picture from the start
You saw right through me in the dark
You saw that I couldn't behave
With eyes so focused, yet so frail
I chose you from a million
You were the choice of billions
Wishing they would try to be like you
But I'd rather fall in love with you
Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...
You questioned men and called them whores
But you would never burn your bra
You held your head up in the rain
Your eyes were focused, mine were grey
You had relationships that worked
And yet experience with jerks
So well adjusted, but with charm
Your eyes were focused and yet calm
I'm fairly realistic
But my thought are out of lip-sync
When I say that I'm not one of those
Who pass you by and fall in love with you
Who pass you by and fall in love with you
Who pass you by and fall in love with you
I'll pass you by and fall in love with you
Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...
Chispa Contraria
Podrías estar triste pero nunca desgarrado
Viste la luz cuando estaba encendida
Nunca te diste la vuelta o apartaste la mirada
Tus ojos estaban enfocados, los míos eran grises
Tus frases estaban concentradas
Hacías tus puntos tan sutilmente
Donde yo murmuraba, tú decías
Tus ojos estaban enfocados, los míos eran grises
Inventaba conversaciones con mi lenguaje simbólico
Diciendo que todos quieren ser como tú
Pero yo preferiría enamorarme de ti
Entendiste desde el principio
Viste a través de mí en la oscuridad
Viste que no podía comportarme
Con ojos tan enfocados, pero tan frágiles
Te elegí entre un millón
Fuiste la elección de miles de millones
Deseando que intentaran ser como tú
Pero yo preferiría enamorarme de ti
Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...
Cuestionabas a los hombres y los llamabas putas
Pero nunca quemarías tu sostén
Mantenías la cabeza en alto bajo la lluvia
Tus ojos estaban enfocados, los míos eran grises
Tuviste relaciones que funcionaron
Y aún así experiencia con idiotas
Tan bien ajustada, pero con encanto
Tus ojos estaban enfocados y aún así tranquilos
Soy bastante realista
Pero mis pensamientos están fuera de sincronía
Cuando digo que no soy uno de esos
Que te pasan por alto y se enamoran de ti
Que te pasan por alto y se enamoran de ti
Que te pasan por alto y se enamoran de ti
Te pasaré por alto y me enamoraré de ti
Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...
