cançó de primavera Lyrics English Translation by Rigoberta Bandini
The stories that scare me the most
Are the ones that haven’t even begun
The ones that leave you with the feeling
That a love has frozen over
I watch them and they go flying off
To another body that doesn’t belong to me
And I like to think
That all this desire is growing bigger
And under my bed I keep things
That I’ll never open so I don’t cause trouble
And the world, I believe, would be something else
If we all lived the love that’s offered to us
And in springtime the bodies go a little crazy
And in springtime the bodies are so sweet
And in springtime the city is ours
And in springtime the animals notice it
The stories that scare me the most
Are the ones that have never landed
The ones that die in the autumn
Without a kiss, without a goodbye
I watch them and they go flying off
To another body that doesn’t belong to me
And I like to think
That all this desire is growing bigger
And under my bed I keep things
That I’ll never open so I don’t cause trouble
And the world, I believe, would be something else
If we all lived the love that’s offered to us
And in springtime the bodies go a little crazy
And in springtime the bodies are so sweet
And in springtime the city is ours
And in springtime the animals notice it
