¿QUÉ VES ALLÍ A LO LEJOS?
¿Qué ves allí a lo lejos?
Si es una tormenta
prepara tu maleta
y cambia de rumbo
o quítate las chancletas
saca las pinturas de guerra
y peléate con el mundo.
Si es un deseo
ponte tus mejores galas
abre el alma
y aligera el paso
pero si algo mejor esperas
sigue en tu condena
comiendo del mismo plato.
Si es un huracán
cierra tus puertas
ata tus metas
y reza algún rosario
o sube las anclas
busca otro mañana
aunque sea extraño.
¿Qué ves allí a lo lejos?
Si es el sol
míralo fijamente
aunque te quemes
y ciego te quedes
pero disfrutarás su belleza
o abrígate de invierno
con el corazón de hielo
y prepara leña.
Si son enemigos
pliega tus velas
para que no te hieran
y saca tu espada
o ponte tu armadura
mantén la lengua muda
y dedícales indiferencia.
Si es un abrazo
corre a su encuentro
y fúndete como queso
aferrándote a él
pero si crees que puede haber
algún puñal escondido
no sigas el camino
o llévate otro tu también.
¿Qué ves allí a lo lejos?
Si soy yo
simplemente... ven.

Stay (Faraway so close!)
Green light, Seven Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
Your wheels are turning but you're upside down
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Hey babe, is that what it is
Red lights, gray morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depend's on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows
And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing
If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...and the day would keep its trust
Stay...and the night would be enough
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satelite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin
And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you
If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...then the day would keep its trust
Stay...with the demons you drowned
Stay...with the spirit I found
Stay...and the night would be enough
Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just the bang
And the clatter
As an angel
Hits the ground.
