I heard you're living it up in ChicagoEscuché que estás disfrutando en Chicago

I bet you're playing me down in your headApuesto a que me estás menospreciando en tu mente

We nearly made it but you let goCasi lo logramos pero te soltaste

But I let you go before you leftPero te solté antes de que te fueras

I woke up and everything was differentDesperté y todo era diferente

Your secrets burst out of the seamsTus secretos estallaron por las costuras

You let it out, I had to listenLo dejaste salir, tuve que escuchar

So much for my American dreamAsí que adiós a mi sueño americano

So much for my American dreamAdiós a mi sueño americano

We were almost goodCasi éramos buenos

We were almostCasi éramos

We were almost good, we were so closeCasi éramos buenos, estábamos tan cerca

You nearly didn't lie, oh, you didn't triedCasi no mentiste, oh, no lo intentaste

You're almost good, almostCasi eras bueno, casi

Am I just leaning on wishful thinking?¿Estoy aferrándome a ilusiones?

Was what we had like precious gold?¿Era lo que teníamos como oro precioso?

'Cause underneath my heart still sinkingPorque debajo mi corazón sigue hundiéndose

Do I have it in me to be bold?¿Tengo la valentía para ser audaz?

Will I wake up and everything be different?¿Despertaré y todo será diferente?

Or will you never really leave?¿O nunca te irás realmente?

Could I still love you in my memories?¿Podría seguir amándote en mis recuerdos?

So much for my American dreamAsí que adiós a mi sueño americano

So much for my American dreamAdiós a mi sueño americano

We were almost good, almostCasi éramos buenos, casi

We were almost good, we were so closeCasi éramos buenos, estábamos tan cerca

You nearly didn't lie, oh, you nearly triedCasi no mentiste, oh, casi lo intentaste

You were almost good, almostCasi eras bueno, casi

Almost, almost, almostCasi, casi, casi

So much for my American dreamAdiós a mi sueño americano

I guess life is never as it seemsSupongo que la vida nunca es como parece
