Seconds Romance

Romance de Segundos

They met in the middle of a verseSe conocieron a mitad de un verso
He was walking near San TelmoEl paseaba cerca de san Telmo
She was waiting for a taxi backElla esperaba un taxi de regreso

They behaved so indifferentSe comportaron tan indiferentes
As people usually doComo se suele comportar la gente
But destiny was impatientPero el factor destino fue impaciente

And they walked down the street dodging the pigeonsY caminaron calle abajo esquivando las palomas
And they looked at each other by the sea, lost in the wavesY se miraron juntos frente al mar perdidos en las olas

And they kept it all quietY lo callaron todo
And they said it allY lo dijeron todo
A look put them in the worldUna mirada los puso en el mundo
They lived a romance of secondsVivieron un romance de segundos

And they kept it all quietY lo callaron todo
And they left aloneY se marcharon solos
For a moment, love joined themPor un instante se sumo el amor
Maybe in another life, sweetheartQuizás en otra vida corazón

A week after that accidentA una semana de aquel accidente
The two strangers saw each other againLos dos extraños volvieron a verse
In the middle of the crowdEn medio del tumulto de la gente

They hurried to find each other among the crowd and the wineY se apuraron a encontrarse entre la multitud y el vino
But the night lost them againPero la noche los perdió otra vez
Damn destinyMaldito sea el destino

And they kept it all quietY lo callaron todo
And they said it allY lo dijeron todo
A look put them in the worldUna mirada los puso en el mundo
They lived a romance of secondsVivieron un romance de segundos

And they kept it all quietY lo callaron todo
And they left aloneY se marcharon solos
For a moment, love joined themPor un instante se sumo el amor
Maybe in another life, sweetheartQuizás en otra vida corazón

They parted in the middle of a verseSe separaron a mitad de un verso
He was walking near San Telmoel paseaba cerca de san Telmo
She took her taxi backElla tomo su taxi de regreso
