| Across the verglas of my dreams
| A través de los verglas de mis sueños
|
| I watch your car careen
| Veo tu coche correr
|
| On the blacktop, spinning steel
| En el asfalto, girando acero
|
| You’re sleeping at the wheel
| Estás durmiendo al volante
|
| Can’t stop you hit the wall
| No puedo evitar que golpees la pared
|
| I don’t have the wherewithal
| no tengo los medios
|
| She looked at me so crookedly
| Ella me miró tan torcidamente
|
| Spoke to me so brokenly
| Me habló tan entrecortadamente
|
| Bowed her head
| inclinó la cabeza
|
| And then she gave one last coquettish wave
| Y luego ella dio una última ola coqueta
|
| It was just the way I loved her
| Era solo la forma en que la amaba
|
| I hear your broken chords
| Escucho tus acordes rotos
|
| They fall in ragged shards
| Caen en fragmentos irregulares
|
| O my squandered star
| Oh mi estrella desperdiciada
|
| Shot full of holes
| Disparo lleno de agujeros
|
| And lamented by saccharine hearts and steel guitar
| Y lamentado por corazones empalagosos y guitarras de acero
|
| She looked at me so crookedly
| Ella me miró tan torcidamente
|
| Spoke to me so brokenly
| Me habló tan entrecortadamente
|
| Bowed her head
| inclinó la cabeza
|
| And then she gave one last coquettish wave
| Y luego ella dio una última ola coqueta
|
| It was just the way I loved her
| Era solo la forma en que la amaba
|
| But I never touched her
| Pero nunca la toqué
|
| She looked at me so crookedly
| Ella me miró tan torcidamente
|
| Spoke to me so brokenly
| Me habló tan entrecortadamente
|
| She looked at me so bookishly
| Ella me miró tan distraídamente
|
| It was just the way I loved her
| Era solo la forma en que la amaba
|
| I never touched her | nunca la toque |
