Flores verdes, peces azules

Green Flowers, Blue Fish

Me diste unas llaves, pero no para tu hogarYou gave me a keys, but not to your home
Las cerraduras de porcelana simplemente no aguantaronThe porcelain locks, they just wouldn't hold
Contra mi hombro, contra el fríoAgainst my shoulder, against the cold
Cedieron y entraronThey gave right in and went on in

Te pusiste el casco, solo para respirarYou put on your helmet, just to breathe
Te pusiste los zapatos, pero no te fuisteYou put on your shoes, but you did not leave

Tomaste una decisión y lo retractaste todoYou made you mind up and took it all back
Volaste tu avión a casa con las cajas que empacasteYou flew your plane home with the boxes you packed
Llenaste tu jarrón pero las flores todas murieronYou filled your vase full but the flowers all died
Las pintaste de verde pero la pintura no se secabaYou painted them green but the paint would not dry

Hiciste una lista de cosas que no decirYou linked up a list of thinks not to say
Puse la cinta y comencé a reproducirlaI put in the tape and began to play

Tomaste una decisión pero los pensamientos se desordenaronYou made your mind up but the thoughts came unstacked
Volaste tu avión a casa, pero yo lo devolvíYou flew your plane home, but I flew it back
Llenaste el lago, pero los peces todos murieronYou filled the lake full, but the fish they all died
Los pintaste de azul, pero la pintura no se secabaYou painted them blue, but the paint would not dry
Llenaste tu jarrón pero las flores todas murieronYou filled your vase full but the flowers all died
Las pintaste también, pero la pintura no se secabaYou painted them too, but the paint would not dry
