|---|---|
| You live your life | tu vives tu vida |
| Painting by numbers from one to five | Pintar por números del uno al cinco |
| Figures outlined | Cifras delineadas |
| Neatly outlined | prolijamente delineado |
| But those you try | Pero los que intentas |
| So hard to control will step out of line | Tan difícil de controlar que se pasará de la raya |
| 'Cause nothing in life | Porque nada en la vida |
| Is so clearly defined | Está tan claramente definido |
| You know that I’ve tried | sabes que lo he intentado |
| To play by your rules | Para jugar con tus reglas |
| I’ve smiled Mona Lisa | He sonreído Mona Lisa |
| To your Leonardo | A tu Leonardo |
| You color me red | me coloreas de rojo |
| Though I’m feeling blue | Aunque me siento triste |
| Alone in your bed | solo en tu cama |
| Waiting for you | Esperando por ti |
| You brush aside | te haces a un lado |
| All sign of emotion never denied | Todo signo de emoción nunca negado |
| No clouds in your sky | Sin nubes en tu cielo |
| No waves on your ocean | No hay olas en tu océano |
| You know that I’ve tried | sabes que lo he intentado |
| To play by your rules | Para jugar con tus reglas |
| You played the king | jugaste al rey |
| And I played the fool | Y me hice el tonto |
| You painted my heart | tu pintaste mi corazon |
| The likeness so true | El parecido tan cierto |
| So why did your pen | Entonces, ¿por qué tu bolígrafo |
| Have to tear it in two? | ¿Tienes que partirlo en dos? |
| You live your life | tu vives tu vida |
| Painting by numbers from one to five | Pintar por números del uno al cinco |
| Figures outlined | Cifras delineadas |
| Neatly outlined | prolijamente delineado |
| But as the years go by | Pero a medida que pasan los años |
| Your colors will run and fade into nothing | Tus colores correrán y se desvanecerán en nada |
| And one day you’ll find | Y un día encontrarás |
| That your life has run dry | Que tu vida se ha secado |
