Varnish

Barniz

It will be because of you that there is no more veil than your hairSerá por ti que no hay más velo que tu pelo
And that the moon has dressed up as a harlequin for you and meY que la luna se ha vestido de arlequín pa ti y pa mi
It will be because of you that weariness is my cousinSerá por ti que las fatigas son mis primas
And my heart shits itself when I smileY es que se me caga encima el corazón al sonreir
It will be because of you that I don't feel likeSerá por ti que no me da la puta gana de
Looking out the window even to see them comingAsomarme a la ventana ni para verlas venir
It will be because of you that my bet in life is scratching my bellySerá por ti que mi envite a la vida es rascar mi barriga

My heart beats to bulerías if she looks at meMe repica el corazón por bulerías si me mira
If she moistens my throat with salivaSi me engrasa la garganta con saliva
My sorrows and my woes clap in solearesMis duquelas y mis males palmean por soleares
If she tells me she loves me every daySi me dice que me quiere to los días

I cling to you like varnish, and the wood rots with youMe apego a ti como el barniz, y se te pudre la madera
In fifteen hundred springs without sleepEn mil quinientas primaveras sin dormir

It will be because of you that all my bad times fitSerá por ti que caben tos mis malos ratos
In the shoebox where I keep the futureEn la caja de zapatos donde guardo el porvenir
It will be because of you that I stumble in the hallwaySerá por ti que me tropiezo en el pasillo
With the chirping of crickets when I don't want to leaveCon el canto de los grillos cuando no me quiero ir
It will be because of you that February ninth arrivesSerá por ti que llega el nueve de febrero
And once again I am the jailer of kisses without lipstickY otra vez soy carcelero de unos besos sin carmín
It will be because of you that what's mine in the clouds is just a slipSerá por ti que lo mío en las nubes solo es un desliz

My heart beats to bulerías if she looks at meMe repica el corazón por bulerías si me mira
If she moistens my throat with salivaSi me engrasa la garganta con saliva
My sorrows and my woes clap in solearesMis duquelas y mis males palmean por soleares
If she tells me she loves me every daySi me dice que me quiere to los días

I cling to you like varnish, and the wood rots with youMe apego a ti como el barniz, y se te pudre la madera
In fifteen hundred springs without sleep, like varnishEn mil quinientas primaveras sin dormir, como el barniz

You'll be a bastard, whispers the sun with a small mouthSerás cabrón, murmura el sol con la boquita pequeña
You'll be unlucky, whispers life, that you'll soon forget meSerás desgraciao, murmura la vida, que pronto me olvidas
With all I've given youCon lo que te he dao
I'll be what I didn't want to be, I'll be your sky, your whim, your child, your seaSeré lo que no quise ser, seré tu cielo, tu antojo, tu niño, tu mar
You'll be a son of a bitch, winking at me, the moon says as she passes bySerás hijo puta, guiñandome un ojo me dice la luna al pasar

I cling to you like varnish, and the wood rots with youMe apego a ti como el barniz, y se te pudre la madera
In fifteen hundred springs without sleep, like varnishEn mil quinientas primaveras sin dormir, como el barniz

I cling to you like varnish, and the wood rots with youMe apego a ti como el barniz, y se te pudre la madera
In fifteen hundred springs without sleep, like varnishEn mil quinientas primaveras sin dormir, como el barniz
