| There are voices in the mirror, faces at the door
| Hay voces en el espejo, caras en la puerta
|
| That open on the rivers we’ve never seen before
| Que se abren en los ríos que nunca hemos visto antes
|
| Are there choices for the sparrow, or does he only fly
| ¿Hay opciones para el gorrión, o solo vuela
|
| High above the rivers that are pulling you and I Oh, there are strange rivers, rivers that we cannot see
| Muy por encima de los ríos que te tiran a ti y a mí Oh, hay ríos extraños, ríos que no podemos ver
|
| There are strange rivers who know our destiny
| Hay ríos extraños que conocen nuestro destino
|
| There are strange rivers who brought your love to me He could have been a builder, he could have been the one
| Hay ríos extraños que me trajeron tu amor Pudo haber sido un constructor, pudo haber sido el
|
| Who turned his dreams to steel cathedrals in the sun
| Quien convirtió sus sueños en catedrales de acero bajo el sol
|
| He could have been a builder, until he bought the gun
| Pudo haber sido constructor, hasta que compró el arma.
|
| There are forces in that river that keep him on the run
| Hay fuerzas en ese río que lo mantienen en la carrera
|
| Oh, there are strange rivers, rivers that we cannot see
| Oh, hay ríos extraños, ríos que no podemos ver
|
| There are strange rivers who know our destiny
| Hay ríos extraños que conocen nuestro destino
|
| There are strange rivers who brought your love to me Have you ever turned the corner and wondered why you did?
| Hay ríos extraños que me trajeron tu amor ¿Alguna vez doblaste la esquina y te preguntaste por qué lo hiciste?
|
| You haven’t been that way since you were just a kid
| No has sido así desde que eras solo un niño.
|
| Nothing really happens and then you have to say
| Realmente no pasa nada y luego tienes que decir
|
| You wonder what would happen had you gone the other way
| Te preguntas qué pasaría si te hubieras ido por el otro lado
|
| Oh, there are strange rivers, rivers that we cannot see
| Oh, hay ríos extraños, ríos que no podemos ver
|
| There are strange rivers who know our destiny
| Hay ríos extraños que conocen nuestro destino
|
| There are strange rivers who brought your love to me | Hay ríos extraños que me trajeron tu amor |
