Como Se Pasa La Vida

How Life Goes By

Como Se Pasa La Vida

In the schoolyard, her gaze would escapeEn el patio del colegio se escapaba su mirada
Towards a world so different from what she imaginedHacia un mundo tan distinto al que ella imaginó
They taught her so many things and she couldn't answerLe enseñaron tantas cosas y no supo responder
The questions that life had to ask herLas preguntas que la vida le tuvo que hacer

Every minute she must learnCada minuto debe aprender
New recipes to growNuevas recetas para crecer
And even if she doesn't understand, she must acceptY aunque no lo entienda lo debe aceptar
(must accept, must accept)(debe aceptar, debe aceptar)
She must acceptDebe aceptar
How life goes byComo se pasa la vida.
Without knowing, without knowing how to appreciateSin saber, sin saber apreciar
Without knowing how to discover the best momentsSin saber descubrir los mejores momentos
And now the classes are over and she doesn't know what to doY ya las clases no están y ya no sabe que hacer
And now she must live what she never learnedY ahora debe vivir lo que nunca aprendió
When everything was happy, very happyCuando todo era feliz, muy feliz

And now she must acceptY ahora debe aceptar
How life goes byComo se pasa la vida

Every minute she must learnCada minuto debe aprender
New recipes to growNuevas recetas para crecer
And even if she doesn't understand, she must acceptY aunque no lo entienda lo debe aceptar
(must accept, must accept)(debe aceptar, debe aceptar)
She must acceptDebe aceptar
How life goes byComo se pasa la vida
Without realizing the timeSin darnos cuenta del tiempo
So much energy investedTanta energía invertida
Could have been used to create new pathsPudo servir para crear nuevos caminos
And not to say againY no volver a decir

How life goes byComo se pasa la vida
Without realizing the timeSin darnos cuenta del tiempo
So much energy invested...Tanta energía invertida...
