Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics
He comes for conversationÉl viene para conversar
I comfort him sometimesA veces lo consuelo
Comfort and consultationComodidad y consulta
He knows that's what he'll findÉl sabe que eso es lo que encontrará
I bring him apples and cheesesLe traigo manzanas y quesos
He brings me songs to playÉl me trae canciones para tocar
He sees me when he pleasesÉl me ve cuando le place
I see him in cafesLo veo en los cafés
And I only say: HelloY yo solo digo: Hola
And turn away before his lady knowsY se aleja antes de que su dama lo sepa
How much I want to see himCuanto quiero verlo
She removes him like a ring, to wash her handsElla se lo quita como si fuera un anillo, para lavarse las manos
She only brings him out to show her friendsElla sólo lo saca para mostrárselo a sus amigos
I want to free himQuiero liberarlo
Secrets and sharing sodaSecretos y compartir refrescos
That's how our time beganAsí empezó nuestro tiempo
Love is a story told to a friendEl amor es una historia contada a un amigo
It's second handEs de segunda mano
But I'll listen to his questionsPero escucharé sus preguntas
I'll give my answers when they're foundDaré mis respuestas cuando las encuentre
He says she keeps him guessingÉl dice que ella lo mantiene adivinando
But I know she keeps him downPero sé que ella lo mantiene abajo
She speaks in sorry sentencesElla habla con frases tristes
Miraculous repentancesArrepentimientos milagrosos
I don't believe herNo le creo
Tomorrow he will come to meMañana vendrá a mi casa
And he'll speak his sorrow endlessly and he'll ask me: Why?Y hablará de su dolor sin parar y me preguntará: ¿Por qué?
Why can't I leave her?¿Porque no puedo dejarla?
He comes for conversationÉl viene para conversar
I comfort him sometimesA veces lo consuelo
Comfort and consultationComodidad y consulta
He knows that's what he'll findÉl sabe que eso es lo que encontrará
He knows that's what he'll findÉl sabe que eso es lo que encontrará
