Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cara B by Jorge Drexler from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Si cuando vuelves a casa
if when you come home
Me ves sombrío
you see me gloomy
Dándole vueltas al vals
circling the waltz
Ten compasión de esta falta de luz
Have compassion on this lack of light
Hoy soy una moneda que tiene dos lados de cruz
Today I am a coin that has two cross sides
Y si me notas lejos
And if you notice me far away
Estando a tu lado
Being at your side
Como una réplica mala
like a bad replica
De lo que yo era
of what I was
Tómate en broma mi salto mortal
Take my somersault as a joke
Hoy soy sólo una copia y tu tienes el original
Today I'm just a copy and you have the original
No le hagas caso
Ignore him
A tanto misterio
to so much mystery
Vos ya sabés la verdad
you already know the truth
Que no hay nada peor para esta seriedad
That there is nothing worse for this seriousness
Que tomársela en serio
to take it seriously
Deja que hable
let him talk
Tu cercanía
your closeness
Vos conocés la razón
you know the reason
Y no hay nada peor para este corazón
And there is nothing worse for this heart
Que una casa vacía, mm mmm
What an empty house, mm mmm
Esta falta de fé
this lack of faith
Este disco rayado que hoy tiene sólo
This broken record that today has only
