La Oreja De Van Gogh - Rosas
Album: Primera Fila

Lyrics & Music: Xabi San Martín


Translation in
RosasRoses
En un día de estos en que suelo pensar
«Hoy va a ser el día menos pensado»
Nos hemos cruzado, has decidido mirar
A los ojitos azules que ahora van a tu lado

Desde el momento en el que te conocí
Resumiendo con prisas «Tiempo de Silencio»
Te juro que a nadie le he vuelto a decir
Que tenemos el récord del mundo en querernos

Coro:
Por eso esperaba
Con la carita empapada
A que llegaras con rosas
Con mil rosas para mí
Porque ya sabes que me encantan esas cosas
Que no importa si es muy tonto, soy así

Y aún me parece mentira
Que se escape mi vida
Imaginando que vuelves
A pasarte por aquí
Donde los viernes cada tarde, como siempre
La esperanza dice «Quieta, hoy quizás sí»


Escapando una noche de un bostezo de sol
Me pediste que te diera un beso.
Con los baratos que salen mi amor
Que te cuesta callarme con uno de esos

Pasaron seis meses y me dijiste «Adiós
Un placer coincidir en esta vida»
Allí me quedé, en una mano el corazón
Y en la otra excusas que ni tú entendías

Coro

Y es que empiezo a pensar
Que el amor verdadero es tan sólo el primero.
Y es que empiezo a sospechar
Que los demás son sólo para olvidar

Coro
On one of those days on which I usually think
“Today is going to be the most unexpected day”
We have crossed paths, you have decided to look
At the sweet blue eyes that now go at your side

From the moment (in which) I met you
Hastily summarising “Time of Silence
I swear to you that I have repeated to nobody
That we have the world record for loving each other

Chorus:
That is why I was hoping
With my sweet face soaked
That you would arrive with roses
With a thousand roses for me
Because you already know that I love those things
It does not matter if it is very silly, I am like that

And it still seems like a lie to me
That my life is slipping away
Imagining that you are coming back
To pass by here
Where every Friday evening, as always
Hope says “Keep calm, maybe today, yes”


Slipping away one night with the last rays* of the sun
You asked me to give you a kiss.
Given how easily they come out, my love
It is difficult for you to silence me with one of those

Six months passed and you said to me “Good-bye
A pleasure to meet you in this life”
There I remained, my heart in one hand
And in the other excuses that not even you understood

Chorus

And (it is that) I start to think
That the true love is really only the first one
And I start to suspect
That the rest are only for forgetting

Chorus
*As the sun sinks below the horizon and its last rays fan out across the sky, it is said to yawn.
