[Translation of "Jueves"]
[Verse 1]
If I were prettier, and a bit smarter
If I were especial, like people on magazine covers
I would have the courage to cross the wagon
And ask you who you are
You sit in front of me and wouldn’t imagine
That I’m wearing my best skirt for you
And when you yawn facing the window
My pupils dilate
[Chorus]
Suddenly, you look at me, I reciprocate and you sigh
I close my eyes, and you look away
I barely breathe, I feel myself become smaller
And I start shaking
[Verse 2]
And that’s how days fly, Monday to Friday
Like those swallows from Bécquer’s poem
Station to station
You and I sit in front of each other
Silence comes and goes
[Chorus]
Suddenly, you look at me, I reciprocate and you sigh
I close my eyes, and you look away
I barely breathe, I feel myself become smaller
And I start shaking
[Bridge]
And then it happens, my lips start talking
They blurt out your name stuttering
I bet you think “what a dumb girl”
And I want the Earth to swallow me
But time stops
And you get closer saying:
“I don’t know you yet but I already missed you
Every morning, I turn down the direct train and go for this one”
We’re already arriving at destination, my life has changed
What a especial day, this 11th of March
You take my hand, we get inside a tunnel
And light go out
[Outro]
I find your face thanks to my hands
I find the courage to kiss your lips
You say you love me and I gift you my last breath
