These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Allá donde se cruzan los caminos
Where the paths cross
Donde el mar no se puede concebir
where the sea cannot be conceived
Donde regresa siempre el fugitivo
Where the fugitive always returns
Pongamos que hablo de Madrid
Let's say I'm talking about Madrid
Donde el deseo viaja en ascensores
where desire travels in elevators
Un agujero queda para mí
A hole is left for me
Que me dejo la vida en sus rincones
That life left me in its corners
Pongamos que hablo de Madrid
Let's say I'm talking about Madrid
Las niñas ya no quieren ser princesas
Girls don't want to be princesses anymore
Y a los niños les da por perseguir
And the children are given to chase
El mar dentro de un vaso de ginebra
The sea in a glass of gin
Pongamos que hablo de Madrid
Let's say I'm talking about Madrid
Los pájaros visitan al psiquiatra
The birds visit the psychiatrist
Las estrellas se olvidan de salir
The stars forget to come out
La muerte pasa en ambulancias blancas
Death passes in white ambulances
Pongamos que hablo de Madrid
Let's say I'm talking about Madrid
El sol es una estufa de butano
The sun is a butane stove
La vida un metro a punto de partir
Life a meter about to leave
Hay una jeringuilla en el lavabo
There's a syringe in the sink
Pongamos que hablo de Madrid
Let's say I'm talking about Madrid
Cuando la muerte venga a visitarme
When death comes to visit me
No me despiertes, déjame dormir
Don't wake me up let me sleep
Aquí he vivido, aquí quiero quedarme
Here I have lived, here I want to stay
Pongamos que hablo de Madrid
Let's say I'm talking about Madrid
