Ricardo Arjona - A La Medida
Album: Independiente

Lyrics & Music: Edgar Ricardo Arjona Morales


Translation in
A La MedidaMade To Measure
A la medida de mis temores
De mis defectos y frustraciones
Apareciste aquella noche
Con blusa blanca y traje oscuro

A la medida de tantos sueños
Que caen al piso y se diluyen.
A la medida de cada pliegue
Del cuerpo tuyo, está hecho el mío

A la medida de tus deseos
Están mis ganas de sofocarlos

Coro:
A la medida
Estamos hechos a la medida
A la medida
Como dos aguas del mismo río
A la medida, a la medida tú y yo
A la medida


A la medida de tus complejos
Están los míos para entenderse.
Tú tienes alas que vuelan poco
Yo tengo sueños que no aterrizan

A la medida de tus secretos
Es mi silencio pa' conservarlos.
A la medida de tu cintura
Están mis brazos para abrazarla

A la medida de mi pasado
Es tu presente para olvidarlo

Coro × 2
Tailored for my fears
My faults and frustrations
You showed up that night
In a white blouse and dark outfit

Tailored for so many dreams
That fall to the floor and dissolve.
Tailored for each crease
Of your body, mine is made

Tailored for your desires
Are my desires to stifle them

Chorus:
Made to measure
We are made to measure
Made to measure
Like two waters from the same river
Made to measure, made to measure you and me
Made to measure


Tailored for your complexes
Are mine to be understood.
You have wings that do not fly very much
I have dreams that do not land

Tailored for your secrets
Is my silence in order to keep them.
Tailored for your waist
Are my arms in order to hug it

Tailored for my past
Is your present for forgetting it

The translation follows the form of the lyrics so some of the English grammar is stretched close to breaking point.
