Warm Princess

Princesa Tibia

You entered without asking,Entraste sin preguntar,
you settled your laughter in my dreamless bed.acomodaste tu risa en mi cama sin sueños.
The afternoon stutteredLa tarde tartamudeaba
its first shadows on the window.sus primeras sombras en el ventanal.
I was starting to tell youYo te empezaba a contar
that I can't offer more than broken promises,que no puedo convidar más que promesas rotas,
you mocked in my ear:vos te burlaste al oído:
'Lie to me slowly, serve me another drink...'.'Mentime despacio, servime otra copa...'.
And you invited me to walk by the edge of your ankles,Y me invitaste a pasear a la orilla de tus tobillos,
and before the sun splashes us, you said:y antes que el sol nos salpique dijiste:
'Goodbye singer, don't catch a cold...'.'Adiós cantor, no tomes frío...'.

Where are you going to sleep tonight?¿Dónde vas a dormir esta noche?
Warm princess of slow kisses.Princesa tibia de besos lerdos.
Where are you going to sleep tonight?¿Dónde vas a dormir esta noche?
With so much winter barking around.Con tanto invierno ladrando por ahí.

I would be what I wasn'tSería lo que no fui
just to see you peeking out the balcony of my sorrows.con tal de verte asomada al balcón de mis penas.
Your absence is like a blowTu ausencia es como un zarpaso
of failed days that never pass.de días fallutos que no pasan más.
I could pretend but the smell of your voicePodría disimular pero el olor de tu voz
cuddled up among my things...se acurrucó entre mis cosas...
So like an idiotAsíque como un imbécil
I write you songs that kiss the canvas.te escribo canciones que besan la lona.
And you took me to dance in the shadowY me sacaste a bailar a la sombra
of your dress.de tu vestido.
And before picking up the clothes you said:Y antes de juntar la ropa dijiste:
'Don't you dare dream of me...'.'Ni se te ocurra soñar conmigo...'.

Where are you going to sleep tonight?¿Dónde vas a dormir esta noche?
Warm princess of slow kisses.Princesa tibia de besos lerdos.
Where are you going to sleep tonight?¿Dónde vas a dormir esta noche?
With so much cold barking around...Con tanto frío ladrando por ahí...

Where are you going to sleep tonight?¿Dónde vas a dormir esta noche?
Warm princess of slow kisses.Princesa tibia de besos lerdos.
Where are you going to sleep tonight?¿Dónde vas a dormir esta noche?
With so much winter barking around...Con tanto invierno ladrando por ahí.
