The Sun by Maroon 5
Lyrics & Translation
English
After school walking home
Fresh dirt under my fingernails
And I can smell hot asphalt
Cars screech to a halt to let me pass
And I cannot remember
What life was like through photographs
And trying to recreate images life gives us from our past
And sometimes it's a sad song
But I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met
You and take my breath away
Make everyday
Worth all of the pain
That I have gone through
And, mama, I've been cryin'
'Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said, "The battle's almost won,
And we're only several miles from the sun."
Moving on down my street
I see people I won't ever meet
Think of her, take a breath
Feel the beat in the rhythm of my steps
And sometimes it's a sad song
But I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met
You and take my breath away
Make everyday
Worth all of the pain
That I have gone through
And, mama, I've been cryin'
'Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said, "The battle's almost won,
And we're only several miles from the sun."
The rhythm of her conversation
The perfection of her creation
The sex she slipped into my coffee
The way she felt when she first saw me
Hate to love and love to hate her
Like a broken record player
Back and forth and here and gone
And on and on and on and on
I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met
You and take my breath away
Make everyday
Worth all of the pain
That I have gone through
And, mama, I've been cryin'
'Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said, "The battle's almost won,
And we're only several miles—."
She said, "The battle's almost won,
And we're only several miles from the sun."

The Sun (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Después de la escuela caminando a casa
Tierra fresca bajo mis uñas
Y puedo oler asfalto caliente
Coches frenan en seco para dejarme pasar
Y no puedo recordar
Cómo era la vida a través de fotografías
Y tratando de recrear imágenes que la vida nos da de nuestro pasado
Y a veces es una canción triste
Pero no puedo olvidar
Me niego a arrepentirme
Tan feliz de haberte conocido
Tú y me quitas el aliento
Haces que cada día
Valga todo el dolor
Por el que he pasado
Y, mamá, he estado llorando
Porque las cosas no son como solían ser
Ella dijo: "La batalla casi está ganada,"
Y estamos a solo unas millas del sol."
Avanzando por mi calle
Veo gente que nunca conoceré
Pienso en ella, respiro
Siento el ritmo en el compás de mis pasos
Y a veces es una canción triste
Pero no puedo olvidar
Me niego a arrepentirme
Tan feliz de haberte conocido
Tú y me quitas el aliento
Haces que cada día
Valga todo el dolor
Por el que he pasado
Y, mamá, he estado llorando
Porque las cosas no son como solían ser
Ella dijo: "La batalla casi está ganada,"
Y estamos a solo unas millas del sol."
El ritmo de su conversación
La perfección de su creación
El sexo que deslizó en mi café
La forma en que se sintió cuando me vio por primera vez
Odio amar y amo odiarla
Como un tocadiscos roto
De un lado a otro y aquí y se fue
Y sigue y sigue y sigue y sigue
No puedo olvidar
Me niego a arrepentirme
Tan feliz de haberte conocido
Tú y me quitas el aliento
Haces que cada día
Valga todo el dolor
Por el que he pasado
Y, mamá, he estado llorando
Porque las cosas no son como solían ser
Ella dijo: "La batalla casi está ganada,"
Y estamos a solo unas millas—."
Ella dijo: "La batalla casi está ganada,"
Y estamos a solo unas millas del sol."
