| When I was born you were my breath
| Cuando nací eras mi aliento
|
| You warmed my skin against your breast
| Calentaste mi piel contra tu pecho
|
| You were my food you were my light
| eras mi alimento eras mi luz
|
| You were my morning and my night
| eras mi mañana y mi noche
|
| It’s always only ever been
| Siempre ha sido solo alguna vez
|
| It’s always only ever been you
| Siempre has sido solo tú
|
| And then I met you on the wall
| Y luego te conocí en la pared
|
| You were seventeen inches tall
| Tenías diecisiete pulgadas de alto
|
| A painted smile across your face
| Una sonrisa pintada en tu cara
|
| I prayed for heaven, prayed for grace
| Recé por el cielo, recé por la gracia
|
| I gave my life when I was ten
| Di mi vida cuando tenía diez años
|
| I prayed in tongues was born again
| Oré en lenguas nació de nuevo
|
| It’s always only ever been you
| Siempre has sido solo tú
|
| You were there
| Tú estabas ahí
|
| As the world unfolded harsher fare
| A medida que el mundo se desarrollaba con una tarifa más dura
|
| As the spiral pared the seams
| Mientras la espiral cortaba las costuras
|
| And the brand new colors gleamed
| Y los nuevos colores brillaron
|
| I could only think of you
| Solo podía pensar en ti
|
| You were there
| Tú estabas ahí
|
| Every broken heart and tangled care
| Cada corazón roto y cuidado enredado
|
| Jesus, Savior, Lord, and King
| Jesús, Salvador, Señor y Rey
|
| Oh my friend and everything
| Oh mi amigo y todo
|
| It was always only you
| siempre fuiste solo tu
|
| I saw the writing on the wall
| Vi la escritura en la pared
|
| You were a man and that was all
| Eras un hombre y eso fue todo
|
| There was no God in heaven above
| No había Dios en el cielo arriba
|
| There was no perfect saving love
| No había un amor salvador perfecto
|
| It was always only ever me
| Siempre fui solo yo
|
| It was always only me
| siempre fui solo yo
|
| And then my world was torn apart
| Y luego mi mundo fue destrozado
|
| I felt a ground, I felt a heart
| Sentí un suelo, sentí un corazón
|
| And all the universe was one
| Y todo el universo era uno
|
| Just like a Father, Spirit, Son
| Como un Padre, Espíritu, Hijo
|
| My heart is open once again
| Mi corazón está abierto una vez más
|
| A distant love, a forlorn friend
| Un amor lejano, un amigo abandonado
|
| Maybe it’s always ever been
| Tal vez siempre ha sido
|
| You
| Tú
|
| If you are there
| si tu estas ahi
|
| As the world unfolds its harsher fare
| A medida que el mundo desarrolla su tarifa más dura
|
| As the spiral pairs the seams
| Mientras la espiral empareja las costuras
|
| As the holy haunts my dreams
| Como el santo persigue mis sueños
|
| I will stay right here with you
| Me quedaré aquí contigo
|
| You were there
| Tú estabas ahí
|
| Every broken heart and tangled care
| Cada corazón roto y cuidado enredado
|
| Jesus, Teacher, Brahman Light
| Jesús, Maestro, Brahman Luz
|
| Son of God and Source of Life
| Hijo de Dios y Fuente de Vida
|
| And it’s always only you | Y siempre eres solo tú |
