Can you tell me¿Puedes decirme

Why have I come?Por qué he venido?

Why am I in Chicago?¿Por qué estoy en Chicago?

I just wanted to kiss the bride,Solo quería besar a la novia,

I didn't think I would be seeing youNo pensé que te vería

And I had to laughY tuve que reír

You were shaking my handEstabas estrechando mi mano

as if we'd never met and Icomo si nunca nos hubiéramos conocido y yo

had to crytuve que llorar

'Cause the tears were too wetPorque las lágrimas estaban demasiado húmedas

and my eyes were too fully mis ojos estaban demasiado llenos

knowing I was forgettablesabiendo que era olvidable

Did it ever hit you to call - no¿Alguna vez se te ocurrió llamar - no

phones in your Chicago?hay teléfonos en tu Chicago?

There's nothing that I need to convey, justNo hay nada que necesite transmitir, solo

maybe a small "hello" from LAquizás un pequeño 'hola' desde LA

And I had to laughY tuve que reír

You were searching your headEstabas buscando en tu cabeza

for the right thing to say and Ila cosa correcta que decir y yo

had to crytuve que llorar

'Cause the tears were too wetPorque las lágrimas estaban demasiado húmedas

and my eyes were too fully mis ojos estaban demasiado llenos

knowing I was forgettablesabiendo que era olvidable

I can recall every face that I have ever kissedPuedo recordar cada rostro que he besado

How did I fall on your "Miss Miscellaneous" list?¿Cómo caí en tu lista de 'Señorita Varios'?

And I had to cryY tuve que llorar

There was no other way to express all my joy,No había otra forma de expresar toda mi alegría,

and Iy yo

had to laughtuve que reír

When I thought of my fateCuando pensé en mi destino

it was all I could doera todo lo que podía hacer

Knowing I had escapedSabiendo que había escapado

from youde ti
