Red Balloon

The day we said goodbye, I saw a red balloon
Floating through the sky, I was afraid of what it could do
The ocean’s over there – I see it through the trees
What if it goes landing there? I pray it hits the beach
The day we said goodbye, it felt more like hello
To something just so right – I am afraid of what I know
The ocean of my heart, the moon behind your ribs
What if it all falls apart? I’ve never felt like this
So, did we meet too soon on a crescent moon
On that island off the bay?
Did we play a tune like a red balloon
Was it meant to float away?
I want you to stay, I want you to stay.
Did we meet too soon on a crescent moon
On that island off the bay?
Did we play a tune like a red balloon
Was it meant to float away?
I want you to stay, I want you to stay, I want you to stay,
I hope that you stay.

Cuando miro afuera, cuando miro adentro
Cuando afuera otra vez
De la periferia, hasta el mero centro
Siempre soy testigo y juez
Cuando sabré descifrar mi razón?
Cuando sentiré mi hogar en mi voz?
Cuando miro el agua, cuando miro el cielo
Cuando miro el agua otra vez
De lo más profundo, a este momento
Quiero ser el ave y el pez
Cuando sabré descifrar mi razón?
Cuando sentiré mi hogar en mi voz?
translation:
When I look outside, when I look inside
When I look outside again
From the periphery, to the very center
I am always the judge and the witness
When will I know how to decipher my reason?
When will I feel at home in my voice?
When I look at the water, when I look at the sky
When I look at the water again
From the deepest place, to this very moment
I want to be the bird and the fish
When will I know how to decipher my reason?
When will I feel at home in my voice?
In my voice
