Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics
To know her is to love herConocerla es amarla
I'm going undercoverVoy de incógnito
To catch a glimpse, but not get caughtPara echar un vistazo, pero no ser atrapado
But to see her could be worsePero verla podría ser peor
If I dont get my head straight firstSi no pongo mi cabeza en orden primero
On a second thought, I guess I'll nodEn segundo pensamiento, supongo que asentiré
She's almost brighter than the sunElla es casi más brillante que el sol
Seems to me to be unfairMe parece injusto
When you consider everyone who pales when they compareCuando consideras a todos los que palidecen al comparar
When they compareAl comparar
Can't hold a candle to her,No pueden igualarla,
'Cause all the moths get in the wayPorque todas las polillas se interponen en el camino
And they'll be giving it to herY le estarán entregando
In silence to embrace*En silencio para abrazarla*
She outshines anyone who ...Ella supera a cualquiera que ...
Who might dare to bask in the same candlelightQue se atreva a disfrutar de la misma luz de velas
Oh please don't seat us in the backPor favor, no nos sientes en la parte trasera
With all the insects and the trashCon todos los insectos y la basura
She is a lady, I'm the trampElla es una dama, yo soy el vagabundo
Collecting stares from pairs goes byRecogiendo miradas de parejas que pasan
Then floods in the butterflies*Luego llegan las mariposas*
You're just a moth drawn to a lampSolo eres una polilla atraída por una lámpara
She's like an ancient artefact; something you're lucky to have foundElla es como un artefacto antiguo; algo que tienes suerte de haber encontrado
She'll pinch the nerves in all the necksElla pellizcará los nervios de todos los cuellos
When she turns those heads aroundCuando gira esas cabezas
Those heads, those headsEsas cabezas, esas cabezas
Can't hold a candle to her,No pueden igualarla,
'Cause all the moths get in the wayPorque todas las polillas se interponen en el camino
And they'll be giving it to herY le estarán entregando
In silence to embrace*En silencio para abrazarla*
She outshines anyone who ...Ella supera a cualquiera que ...
Who might dare to bask in the same candlelightQue se atreva a disfrutar de la misma luz de velas
Who may dare to bask in the same candlelightQuién se atreverá a disfrutar de la misma luz de velas
She's almost brighter than the sunElla es casi más brillante que el sol
Seems to me to be unfairMe parece injusto
When you consider everyone who pales when they compareCuando consideras a todos los que palidecen al comparar
When they compareAl comparar
Can't hold a candle to her,No pueden igualarla,
'Cause all the moths get in the wayPorque todas las polillas se interponen en el camino
And they'll be giving it to herY le estarán entregando
In silence to embrace*En silencio para abrazarla*
She outshines anyone who ...Ella supera a cualquiera que ...
Who might dare to bask in the same candlelightQue se atreva a disfrutar de la misma luz de velas
In the same candlelightEn la misma luz de velas
