Podrías estar triste pero nunca desgarradoYou could be sad but never torn
Viste la luz cuando estaba encendidaYou saw the light when it was on
Nunca te diste la vuelta o apartaste la miradaYou never turned or looked away
Tus ojos estaban enfocados, los míos eran grisesYour eyes were focused, mine were grey

Tus frases estaban concentradasYour sentences were concentrated
Hacías tus puntos tan sutilmenteYou made your points so understated
Donde yo murmuraba, tú decíasWhere I would mumble, you would say
Tus ojos estaban enfocados, los míos eran grisesYour eyes were focused, mine were grey

Inventaba conversaciones con mi lenguaje simbólicoI made up conversations with my symbolic language
Diciendo que todos quieren ser como túSaying everybody wants to be like you
Pero yo preferiría enamorarme de tiBut I'd rather fall in love with you

Entendiste desde el principioYou got the picture from the start
Viste a través de mí en la oscuridadYou saw right through me in the dark
Viste que no podía comportarmeYou saw that I couldn't behave
Con ojos tan enfocados, pero tan frágilesWith eyes so focused, yet so frail

Te elegí entre un millónI chose you from a million
Fuiste la elección de miles de millonesYou were the choice of billions
Deseando que intentaran ser como túWishing they would try to be like you
Pero yo preferiría enamorarme de tiBut I'd rather fall in love with you

Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...

Cuestionabas a los hombres y los llamabas putasYou questioned men and called them whores
Pero nunca quemarías tu sosténBut you would never burn your bra
Mantenías la cabeza en alto bajo la lluviaYou held your head up in the rain
Tus ojos estaban enfocados, los míos eran grisesYour eyes were focused, mine were grey

Tuviste relaciones que funcionaronYou had relationships that worked
Y aún así experiencia con idiotasAnd yet experience with jerks
Tan bien ajustada, pero con encantoSo well adjusted, but with charm
Tus ojos estaban enfocados y aún así tranquilosYour eyes were focused and yet calm

Soy bastante realistaI'm fairly realistic
Pero mis pensamientos están fuera de sincroníaBut my thought are out of lip-sync
Cuando digo que no soy uno de esosWhen I say that I'm not one of those
