Miro la vida pasar [English translation]

My natural indifference,

Toughened up in a thousand battles against laziness,

Removes any traces of love1,

Because in my life everything ends as it starts.

And with a radical, dissembling2 attitude3,

I turn my back without any show of sadness,

Melancholy or deception, happiness or temptation,

Everything could get worse.

In the meantime I am watching life pass me by,

And you don’t know how hard it is to accept

That you won’t come back.

For the moment, I watch life pass me by.

Out of the blue4,

Someone mentions you again.

Time has gone, I’m still the same;

Sometimes thing I’ve lost my head,

And some days, for no reason,

My heart no longer beats in this prison of resentment.

In the meantime I am watching life pass me by,

And you don’t know how hard it is to accept

That you won’t come back.

For the moment, I watch life pass me by.

Out of the blue,

Someone mentions you again.

I’ve always been strong,

Though sometimes I’ve doubted

If fate

Has not laughed at me.

In the meantime I am watching life pass me by,

And you don’t know how hard it is to accept

That you won’t come back.

For the moment, I watch life pass me by.

Out of the blue,

Someone mentions you again.
