Lyrics translated into Español · See the original lyrics
I have a loveTengo un amor
That the good lord above cannot fathomQue el buen Señor arriba no puede comprender
Yet it's rationedSin embargo, está racionado
You don't seem to want itNo pareces quererlo
But if pain wears you thinPero si el dolor te consume
I could color you in , take the grey awayPodría colorearte, quitar el gris
If you'd let me staySi me permitieras quedarme
if you'd let us beginSi nos permitieras empezar
Know there is puritySabe que hay pureza
bestowed on you and meconcedida a ti y a mí
I don't believe they'd hate usNo creo que nos odiarían
In the face of loveAnte el amor
How to make you conceiveCómo hacerte concebir
There is community in each otherQue hay comunidad en el otro
Was it your father, or was it the doctor¿Fue tu padre, o fue el doctor
Or the institutionO la institución?
But if prayer wears you thinPero si la oración te consume
Or the wrath of your kinO la ira de tus parientes
I'll take the shame awayQuitaré la vergüenza
If you'd let me staySi me permitieras quedarme
If you'd let us beginSi nos permitieras empezar
Know there is puritySabe que hay pureza
bestowed on you and meconcedida a ti y a mí
I don't believe they'd hate usNo creo que nos odiarían
In the face of loveAnte el amor
