Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Horas by Jorge Drexler from Spanish to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
No queríamos dormir
we didn't want to sleep
Nos queríamos comer el mundo
We wanted to eat the world
No podíamos dejar de estar a solas ni un segundo
We couldn't stop being alone for a second
Ida y vuelta de la cama
to and from bed
A la alfombra voladora
to the flying carpet
Nos bastaba con dejar pasar
it was enough for us to let go
Dejar pasar las horas
let the hours go by
Colgados como dos computadoras
Hanging like two computers
Meta echar carbón en la locomotora
Meta put coal in the locomotive
Recorriendo aquel edén
touring that eden
De sólo dos metros cuadrados
Of only two square meters
¿Qué será de aquel colchón, de aquel colchón tan maltratado?
What will become of that mattress, of that mistreated mattress?
Allá íbamos tú y yo
there we went you and me
Llevados por el remolino
carried away by the whirlpool
Nos dejábamos caer, caer
We let ourselves fall, fall
Caer hacia el destino
fall towards destiny
Durante horas, horas
For hours, hours
Colgados como dos computadoras
Hanging like two computers
Meta echar carbón en la locomotora
Meta put coal in the locomotive
No queríamos dormir
we didn't want to sleep
Nos queríamos comer a besos
We wanted to eat kisses
No queríamos dejar de cometer ni un solo exceso
We did not want to stop committing a single excess
Nos venía a saludar en el balcón la luna llena
The full moon came to greet us on the balcony
Nos bastaba con dejar morir
it was enough for us to let die
Dejar morir la pena
let the grief die
Durante horas, horas
For hours, hours
Colgados como dos computadoras
Hanging like two computers
Meta echar carbón en la locomotora
Meta put coal in the locomotive
Oh, horas, horas
oh hours hours
Colgados como dos computadoras
Hanging like two computers
Meta echar carbón en la locomotora
Meta put coal in the locomotive
