Durante Una Mirada

When I grew up, I left the neighborhood
And hardly ever go down to Madrid
In return, I live without surprises
With a good man I met
In all the photos, you will see me smiling

Youth passed me by
And I surrendered to reason
I sold my piano, bought a nice suit
And every Sunday I go out for a run
It could be said that everything is fine

And then, suddenly, I see you among the people
During a look, the universe stops
We are together again and our souls ignite
Suddenly we understand that ours is forever

But we do nothing and keep walking
We continue with the life that was prescribed to us both
Each on our own, dying to turn around
Blinking quickly to hide that we are crying

After you, I promised to take care of myself
And locked my heart
And although I confess that I no longer laugh
I also feel no pain
I learned to settle and it's better this way

And then, suddenly, I see you among the people
During a look, the universe stops
We are together again and our souls ignite
Suddenly we understand that ours is forever

But we do nothing and keep walking
We continue with the life that was prescribed to us both
Each on our own, dying to turn around
Blinking quickly to pretend

That sometimes I can't sleep
And looking at the ceiling, I keep thinking
How slow the hours pass
How quickly the years go by

We were never prepared for such a strong wind
That messes up our souls and stirs up our papers
And although my heart already has its path
I don't know how to prevent this beat from being yours

But no, we won't do anything, we'll keep walking
We'll continue with the life that was prescribed to us both
Each on our own, dying to turn around
Blinking quickly to hide that we are crying
