Imán

An improvised Sunday afternoonUna tarde de domingo improvisado
In some house where I was happyEn alguna casa donde fui feliz
I devoured a winter and stepped asideDevoré un invierno y me hice a un lado
When they told me you were thereCuando me dijeron que estabas allí

Where so many mouths end upAllí donde van a parar tantas bocas
That forget who made them feelQue se olvidan de quien las hizo sentir
A minute that had been my disasterUn minuto que había sido mi desastre
Knowing you were elsewhere, hearing you laughSaberte en otra parte, escuchándote reír

And you will leaveY tú te irás
And I will beY yo seré
The idiot who throws herself into the seaLa idiota que se tira al mar
The overflowing wind that knocks you downEl viento desbordado que te tumba
And at the same time stops youY a la vez te frena

You go after everything that sounds wrongVas detrás de todo lo que suena mal
Damn magnetMaldito imán
Of difficult thingsDe las cosas difíciles
Of difficult momentsDe momentos difíciles

The Sun burns that has slipped between the treesQuema el Sol que se ha colado entre los árboles
Because fire will never know how to be subtlePorque el fuego nunca sabrá ser sutil
The border of oblivion comes easilyLa frontera del olvido llega fácil
The impossible is to overcome itLo imposible es superarla
Without anyone talking about youSin que nadie hable de ti

We show so many things in lifeDemostramos tantas cosas en la vida
Do we hold onto emotions for what?¿Retenemos emociones para qué?
Hopefully you don't have to come back one dayOjalá no tengas que volver un día
To the place where I told you: StayAl lugar donde te dije: Quédate

And you will leaveY tú te irás
And I will beY yo seré
The idiot who throws herself into the seaLa idiota que se tira al mar
The overflowing wind that knocks you downEl viento desbordado que te tumba
And at the same time stops youY a la vez te frena

You go after everything that sounds wrongVas detrás de todo lo que suena mal
Damn magnetMaldito imán
Of difficult thingsDe las cosas difíciles
Of difficult momentsDe momentos difíciles

And you will leaveY tú te irás
And I will beY yo seré
The idiot who throws herself into the seaLa idiota que se tira al mar
The overflowing wind that knocks you downEl viento desbordado que te tumba
And at the same time stops youY a la vez te frena

You go after everything that sounds wrongVas detrás de todo lo que suena mal
Damn magnetMaldito imán
Of difficult thingsDe las cosas difíciles
Of difficult momentsDe momentos difíciles
