Estoy por una vida a la vuelta de la esquina
que te coge desprevenido,
que viene y te deja todo lo que necesitas
y más además.
I am for a life and time by numbers
Blast in fast 'n' low
Add 'em up, considerando la suerte
nunca se sabe.

I am into la amistad and plain sailing
Through frenzied ports o' call
O shake the hand to beat the band
With love is all

Or nothing to the man who wants tomorrow
There's one in every town
Un loco que preferiría morir
que estar atado.

Abogo por el hombre who drives the hammer
To rock you hasta la tumba.
Su taladro eléctico shocks
A million miles away

I am for the revolution's coming
No sé dónde ha estado.
For those who dare, porque está allí.
Lo sé, lo he visto.

Now and then I've suffered imperfection
he estudiado los defectos del marmol
And faces drawn pale and worn
por muchas lágrimas.

I am that I am from out of nowhere
to fight without a cause
Roots strain against the grain
With brute force you'd better
Hold out when you're in doubt
Question what you see
y cuando encuentres una respuesta,
Bring it home to me.

I am for a life around the corner
That takes you by surprise
That comes leaves all you need
And more besides
I am for a life and time by numbers
Blast in fast 'n' low
Add 'em up, account for luck
You never know

I am into friendship and plain sailing
Through frenzied ports o' call
O shake the hand to beat the band
With love is all

Or nothing to the man who wants tomorrow
There's one in every town
A crazy guy, he'd rather die
Than be tied down

I am for the man who drives the hammer
To rock you 'til the grave
His power drill shocks
A million miles away

I am for the revolution's coming
I don't know where she's been
For those who dare because it's there
I know I've seen

Now and then I've suffered imperfection
I've studied marble flaws
And faces drawn pale and worn
By many tears

I am that I am from out of nowhere
to fight without a cause
Roots strain against the grain
With brute force you'd better
Hold out when you're in doubt
Question what you see
And when you find an answer
Bring it home to me.

Oh, ojos de ángel,
¿me engaño o suspiraste?
Por todo lo que sé, dejas que la luz de tu amor
brille sobre mí.

Oh, ojos de ángel
You never close. ¿Quién tiene tiempo?
Bueno, puedo esperar hasta que la luz de tu amor

Querido Hyde,
Ya no puedo
explicar, I've tried
With words in vain
They pass you by
Like falling rain
From perfect skies
Still falls the rain
Inside

Hey brother don't be square
Here it is not over there
I'm your man, I've got it made
You need my fire you need my shade
estás aquí, Hyde.

Once more inspire
This strangely tied
Uncertain frame
So torn inside
Still falls the rain
Two minds, one vein
Still falls the rain
Inside

Hey doctor don't be scared
It's you and me so where's my share?
I'm the man just move aside
Call me mister call me Hyde
Hey lover, no seas tímida,
I'm a single minded guy

Better watch me, boy I'm rough
Half a man ain't strong enough
Hey brother don't be square
Here it is not over there
I'm your man, I've got it made
You feed my fire, necesitas mi sombra.

Dear Hyde
No more can I
Explain, I've tried
With words in vain
They pass you by
Like falling rain
From perfect skies
Still falls the rain
Inside

Hey brother don't be square
Here it is not over there
I'm your man, I've got it made
You need my fire you need my shade
You're here Hyde

Once more inspire
This strangely tied
Uncertain frame
So torn inside
Still falls the rain
Two minds, one vein
Still falls the rain
Inside

Hey doctor don't be scared
It's you and me so where's my share?
I'm the man just move aside
Call me mister call me Hyde
Hey lover don't be shy
I'm a single minded guy

Better watch me, boy I'm rough
Half a man ain't strong enough
Hey brother don't be square
Here it is not over there
I'm your man, I've got it made
You feed my fire you need my shade

Through the undercover hour
Bad and bleak
To be brief, too much sorrow
y la carne es débil.
No más sentimientos,
no más lágrimas.

El río es lo suficientemente ancho,
Flowing stronger through the years
labios de plata, kisses borrowed
Glances steal
To quick, how they quiver
Too late they're sealed
No más sentimientos,
no más lágrimas.

El río es lo suficientemente ancho,
Flowing stronger through the years

Through the undercover hour
Bad and bleak
To be brief, too much sorrow
And flesh is weak
No more feelings
No more tears

The river's wide enough
Flowing stronger through the years
Silver lips, kisses borrowed
Glances steal
To quick, how they quiver
Too late they're sealed
No more feelings
No more tears

The river's wide enough
Flowing stronger through the years

I've been around
So far it seems
Lástima que la tristeza
arruinó mis planes.
Dinamita qué dulce sorpresa,
en el calor del sur
o en los cielos del norte.

¿No es así? ¿No es así? ¿No es así? Si no es así, ¿alguien lo sabe?

Se aferran las sombras
donde se cierran las contraventas. ¿Quién puede decirlo?
Dios sabe
por qué algunos pueden reír
y otros cantar.
Espera en la cola
o muévete y baila.

¿No es así?

Cross the street
who's ringing bells? Las paredes desconchadas
de hoteles baratos.
Una llamarada de neón,
un repentino escalofrío,
y there you lie
y el tiempo se detiene.

¿No es así?

I've been around
So far it seems
Too bad the blues
Blew my schemes
Dynamite Such sweet surprise
In southern heat
Or northern skies

Ain't that so Ain’t that so Ain’t that so If that ain’t so Does anyone know?

Shadows cling
Where shutters close Who can tell
Heaven knows
Why some can laugh
And some can sing
Stand in line
Or get on down and swing

Ain't that so

Cross the street
who's ringing bells? Peeling walls
Of cheap hotels
Neon flare
A sudden chill
And there you lie
And time stands still

Ain't that so

Walking home tonight
It came as no surprise
Certain parties making out
Before my eyes
mi chiquilla.

O mujer del mundo.
Hay una pequeña cafetería
donde los amantes toman su tiempo.
Es bueno para los días de lluvia.
Lástima que haga buen tiempo,
mi chiquilla.

Or woman of the world
What's the story?
True to life or just a lie
See you later
What's so new about goodbye?
Mi chiquilla
o mujer del mundo.

Walking home tonight
It came as no surprise
Certain parties making out
Before my eyes
My little girl

Or woman of the world
There's a small cafe
Where lovers take their time
It's good for rainy days
Too bad the weather's fine
My little girl

Or woman of the world
What's the story?
True to life or just a lie
See you later
What's so new about goodbye?
My little girl
Or woman of the world

Yesterday, well it seemed so cool
When I walked you home, kissed goodnight
I said "it's love" you said "all right"
Es curioso como nunca pude llorar,
hasta esta noche and you pass by
Hand in hand with another guy.
Estás vestida para matar: adivina quién muere.

Dance away la angustia,
Dance away las lágrimas,
Dance away

La soledad es una sala abarrotada,
llena de corazones abiertos convertidos en piedra.
Todos juntos, todos solos,
All at once todo mi mundo había cambiado
Now I'm in the dark, off the wall
Let the strobe light up them all
cierro los ojos y bailo hasta el amanecer
Dance away

Now I know I must walk the line
hasta encontrar una puerta.
Allí estaba yo, many times a fool
I hope and pray, but not too much
Out of reach is out of touch
All the way is far enough
Dance away

Yesterday, well it seemed so cool
When I walked you home, kissed goodnight
I said "it's love" you said "all right"
It's funny how I could never cry
Until tonight and you pass by
Hand in hand with another guy
You're dressed to kill and guess who's dying?

Dance away the heartache
Dance away the tears
Dance away

Loneliness is a crowded room
Full of open hearts turned to stone
All together all alone
All at once my whole world had changed
Now I'm in the dark, off the wall
Let the strobe light up them all
I close my eyes and dance till dawn
Dance away

Now I know I must walk the line
Until I find an open door
There was I, many times a fool
I hope and pray, but not too much
Out of reach is out of touch
All the way is far enough
Dance away

¿Estás listo para mala leche?
Tengo bastante.
Oh, estoy harto de esas palabritas dulces
en mi oído.

¿No es curioso? Soy la miel
que todo tu dinero no puede comprar.
Así que nena, puedes llorar, llorar, llorar,
llorar, llorar, llorar, llorar, llorar, llorar, llorar,
llorar, llorar, llorar, llorar, llorar, llorar, llorar.

Now the last laugh is mine
You ready for hot stuff? Prepárate.
I'm sick of your cheap, cheap hustle
Oh, no te atrevas.

Oremos para que el Señor tenga piedad
de tu mente mercenaria,
porque aunque llores, llores, llores,
llores, llores, llores, llores, llores, llores, llores,
llores, llores, llores, llores, llores, llores, llores

Your heart out, I won't be kind
Lonely

¿Estás lista para los buenos tiempos? Hard to bear
You're steppin' on holy ground, hold it there
Babe, I'm a fading out your hologram
A phoney toothpaste smile

Remember when you cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
(Your heart out, I did mine)

Cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry
...

Are you ready for bad blood?
I've got my share
I'm sick of them sweet, sweet nothings
Oh, in my ear

Ain't it funny? I'm the honey
All your money just can't buy
So baby you can cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry

Now the last laugh is mine
You ready for hot stuff? Be prepared
I'm sick of your cheap, cheap hustle
Oh, don't cha dare

Let us pray the Lord have mercy
On your mercenary mind
'Cause even if you cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry

Your heart out, I won't be kind
Lonely

Are you ready for good times? Hard to bear
You're steppin' on holy ground, hold it there
Babe, I'm a fading out your hologram
A phoney toothpaste smile

Remember when you cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
(Your heart out, I did mine)

Cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry

Now the ballroom's empty
Everybody I have known
Has been and gone
With the music over
aquí estoy,
A shadow echoing on
Spin me round

Now there must be something
In what they say of all things
Great and small
There's dozen roses
Lying almost dying
To say all
Spin me round

A nether world dancing toy
I'm wired for sound
¿A mí me importa
quién gira la llave?
Si la vida es para vivirla,
Then the way is clear
Pero no entiendo
por qué el sueño ha terminado
y no me puedo despertar.
Échame una mano
Spin a round

Now the ballroom's empty
Everybody I have known
Has been and gone
With the music over
Here am I
A shadow echoing on
Spin me round

Now there must be something
In what they say of all things
Great and small
There's dozen roses
Lying almost dying
To say all
Spin me round

A nether world dancing toy
I'm wired for sound
Does it matter to me
Who turns the key?
Now if life is for living
Then the way is clear
But I don't understand
Why the dream has ended
Yet I can't wake up
Lend a hand
Spin a round
