Cuando Éramos Reyes
Corrimos por Madrid, detrás de algún balón
bebimos en los bares hasta ver el sol.
Quemamos el motor, volvieron a crujir
las vías de trenes.
Besamos a traición, aquella Marilyn
con aire trasnochado de Brigitte Bardot.
Nos fuimos a dormir, intacto el corazón
y no perdimos nada.
Y no perdimos nada
Porque lo sellamos todo a pie de aquella cala,
incluso nuestras diferencias congeniaban
Como dos gotas de agua, de agua...
Cuando éramos reyes...
El arte de vivir detrás de una canción,
dos chicas calentándonos la habitación
y de repente oí "hey" suban al avión
y no hubo más remedio.
Y no se muevan de su asiento
que ahora es tiempo para disfrutar el vuelo
con palomas enganchadas a los dedos
bordeábamos el mar, el mar
Cuando éramos reyes...
Cada momento vivido,
cada maleta cerrada,
cada uno de mis amigos
me esperan en la antesala.
A pie de cualquier camino,
al filo de la mañana,
Un corazón encendido
da vida y luz al alba, al alba.
Cada uno de mis amigos,
cuando éramos reyes
Cada uno de mis amigos,
Cuando éramos reyes…
When We Were Kings
We ran through Madrid, chasing some ball
We drank in the bars until we saw the sun
We burned the engine, the train tracks creaked again
We kissed treacherously, that Marilyn
With a Brigitte Bardot's old-fashioned air
We went to sleep, heart intact
And we didn't lose anything
And we didn't lose anything
Because we sealed everything at the foot of that cove
Even our differences got along
Like two peas in a pod, in a pod...
When we were kings...
The art of living behind a song
Two girls warming up our room
And suddenly I heard 'hey' get on the plane
And there was no other choice
And don't move from your seat
Now it's time to enjoy the flight
With doves hooked to our fingers
We skirted the sea, the sea
When we were kings...
Every moment lived
Every suitcase closed
Each one of my friends
Waiting for me in the anteroom
At the foot of any road
At the edge of the morning
A heart on fire
Brings life and light to dawn, to dawn
Each one of my friends
When we were kings
Each one of my friends
When we were kings...
