| On a Freezing Chicago Street (original) | On a Freezing Chicago Street (traducción) |
|---|---|
| On a freezing Chicago street we shook | En una calle congelada de Chicago nos sacudimos |
| Your hands were trembling from all those pills you took | Tus manos temblaban por todas esas pastillas que tomaste |
| And we got drunk on cheap red wine in a paper cup | Y nos emborrachamos con vino tinto barato en un vaso de papel |
| And I was barely awake when you got home | Y apenas estaba despierto cuando llegaste a casa |
| And climbed yourself into bed wearing cheap perfume | Y te metiste en la cama con perfume barato |
| And Sarah screamed your every breath is a gift | Y Sarah gritó que cada respiración es un regalo |
| If you weren’t so selfish than you might want to live | Si no fueras tan egoísta entonces querrías vivir |
| So if your lover should leave don’t get too sad | Así que si tu amante debe irse, no te pongas demasiado triste |
| And don’t compose epic poems to win her back | Y no compongan poemas épicos para recuperarla |
| Cause when your bird has flown, she’ll never return home | Porque cuando tu pájaro haya volado, nunca volverá a casa |
| Though all your life you’ll wait she never will return | Aunque toda tu vida esperarás, ella nunca volverá |
