A diez centímetros de ti [English translation]

I review my lessons in front of the mirror

and tell myself that in the long run what's good is what's right.

I breathe slowly, I turn to the bar's counter

where you are.

And you, you know the map of my soul

and you already know there's a whole world behind my eyes.

You know how to open my doors asking me if everything is alright

or if there is something wrong.

And here is when your eyes leave me disarmed,

breaking my most prudent part in a thousand little pieces.

My theory crumbles turned into a bunch of words

that go back home on their own today.

Ten centimetres away from you!

Ten light-years away from tomorrow!

Who cares about exact sciences

if you and I are like this.

Ten centimetres away from you!

Ten light-years away from tomorrow!

Your charm is like guns loaded

with promises to be fulfilled.

Promises on the sand

that the sea will erase when coming.

The years that are gone weighed so many centuries

and within the duration of a kiss, my time has gone in reverse.

You see now, I'm an idiot 'cause now I'll have to forget

you again.

There's no need for me to swear to you, dear mate,

that I shouldn't have loved you and, yet, I love you.

So don't do any cheating 'cause you already and perfectly know

my weakness.

And here is when your eyes leave me disarmed,

breaking my most prudent part in a thousand little pieces.

My theory crumbles turned into a bunch of words

that go back home on their own today.

Ten centimetres away from you!

Ten light-years away from tomorrow!

Who cares about exact sciences

if you and I are like this.

Ten centimetres away from you!

Ten light-years away from tomorrow!

Your charm is like guns loaded

with promises that

Manage to make me feel so stupid, so weird,

so far away from myself, so close to your soul.

I get lost adrift and in the middle of the water, I only find

spoilt promises.

Ten centimetres away from you!

Ten light-years away from tomorrow!

Who cares about exact sciences

if you and I are like this.

Ten centimetres away from you!

Ten light-years away from tomorrow!

Your charm is like guns loaded

with promises to be fulfilled.

Promises amidst the tides.

Your name and my mine on the sand.

Promises under conviction

that the sea will erase when coming.
