Lyrics of Deixar-te un dia - Manel

Deixar-te un dia (original)

Ja declinava el vespre que tu deus haver oblidat
Caminàvem rumb a casa, el sol s’amaga entre terrats
La teva veu sonava lluny, com el xiulet de trens perduts
Com la remor d’un riu nascut en cims nevats, muntanya amunt
I aquella idea il•legal m’anava inundant el cap
M’hauràs de disculpar amor meu
Que vaig pensar deixar-te un dia
Abandonar-te a la teva sort…
Només esperava en silenci que es presentés el moment
De fer-ho volar tot pels aires, fent veure que era un accident
Diria unes paraules greus mirant a l’infinit
Les sentia dins la boca tenses, preparades per sortir
Venien frases solemnes que ens matarien com un poltre coix
Venia a arrossegar el cos mort del nostre amor
Fins a un racó discret per amagar-lo entre les flors
Però s’ha vist que aneu predicant pels carrers
Que l’amor es transforma amb els anys
Veniu urgent a explicar-nos si es transforma tant
Si es transforma tant, si es transforma tant
Si es transforma tant!
Ja s’intuïa a l’horitzó la costa verge d’un nou mon
Ja em desplaçava més lleuger alliberat del pes del teu amor
Ja se sentia algú rient, l’escalfor d’una altra gent
Un altre cos, una altra veu capaç de fer-me més content
Ja m’allunyava caminant mirant als ulls als vianants
«Sabeu el meu futur?
Avui m’he disparat amb munició de plata apuntant directe al cor.»
En aturar-nos per creuar vas agafar-me la mà
Vaig tornar una bola rasa a un nen que jugava en un portal
«No ho expliquis a ta mare que es curtirà el proper Nadal»

(translation)

It was already declining the evening you must have forgotten
We walked home, the sun hiding between the rooftops
Your voice sounded far away, like the whistle of a lost train
Like the murmur of a river born on snowy peaks, up the mountain
And that illegal idea was flooding my head
You have to apologize for my love
That I thought of leaving you one day
Surrender to your luck…
I just silently waited for the moment to come
To blow it all up, pretending it was an accident
I would say serious words to infinity
He felt them tense in his mouth, ready to leave
They sold solemn phrases that would kill us like a lame foal
He came to drag the dead body of our love
To a discreet corner to hide it among the flowers
But it has been seen that you are preaching in the streets
That love transforms over the years
Come on in, take a look and enjoy yourself!
If it transforms so much, if it transforms so much
If it transforms so much!
The virgin coast of a new world was already on the horizon
I was already moving lighter released from the weight of your love
Someone was already laughing, the warmth of other people
Another body, another voice able to make me happier
I was already walking away looking into the eyes of pedestrians
“Do you know my future?
Today I shot myself with silver ammunition aimed directly at my heart. "
When you stopped to cross you grabbed my hand
I returned a shallow ball to a child playing in a portal
"Don't tell your mother that she's going to be tanned next Christmas"
