When I was 21, I happened to write my first song (or second one; I've always had trouble date-timing my songs due to their start/completion dates). The song, narrates the cumbersome tale of a young man (me) who fell in love with allegedly the wrong woman (today a really nice person, but back in the day, it didn't seem that way... and that the story is a picturesque and ironic rather than an accurate portrayal of reality).This song was a milestone in my life, since it might have been the one song that manage to make it to some of my friend's iPods/iPhones, played in the radio and made somebody once recognize me on the streets. It was because of this song that I actually kept writing as it made me think that it was possible to make music and lyrics that people could eventually like.I wrote it initially in spanish, and today... I know that at least you can sing along the chorus in english and german.In this post you will find the music by tracks, so that in case you'd like it you translate it to another language, or maybe play the bass, drums or guitar better than I did (far from being challenging) you can do it. But first the lyrics and files.
Deberías SaberYou Should KnowSi supieras que la luna es el reflejo de tus sueños.Si supieras que los sueños son la voz de los deseos.Me tendrías cerca de tí;No me habrías dejado ir.Si supieras que la amor tiene una magia afrodisiaca,no te hubieras asustado ni salido de mi cama.Y me tendrías cerca de tí;No te habrías podido ir.Pero así fue: tu te largaste,y me dejaste solo otra vez.Y ahora tengo que dormir,la cama es grande para mi.Si supieras que el dormir trae consigo tus recuerdos,y que el amanecer está repleto de lamentos;No podría quedarme aquí,voy corriendo junto a ti.Pero otra vez, tu te largaste,y me dejaste solo otra vez.Y ahora tengo que dormir,la cama es grande para mi solo.If you knew that the moon portray your dreams.If you knew that dreams are desire's own voice.You'd have me close to you;You wouldn't have let me go.If you knew that love is an aphrodisiac kind of magic,you wouldn't have gotten scared and fled my bed.And you'd have me close to you;You wouldn't have walked away.But that you did: you walked away from me,you left me all alone once again.Now I have no choice but sleep,and there's too much room in my bed.If you knew that sleeping brings back your memories,and that dawn is filled with wail;I couldn't stay put,I'm running after you.But once again, you walked away from me,you left me all alone once again.Now I have no choice but sleep,and there's too much room in my bed for me only.[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/166919253" params="auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&visual=true" width="100%" height="450" iframe="true" /]
