Genius English Translations
Los Mesoneros, Elsa y Elmar - Pangea (”Pangea”)
I asked for it
I saw it coming
I watched as you withdrew
And I didn’t learn
And I didn’t learn
I gave you, I gave you
I gave you everything and more
And in spite of that, a sea separates us
Now I don’t know, now I don’t know
How much more I can possibly take
While I am here and over there is my heart
But I can’t let go
It’s impossible for me to quit loving
If we are playing with fire
What were we waiting to happen?
And now, I watch as gradually you leave me
I’m spinning in place
Pretending I can touch you
But understanding it goes beyond you
It goes beyond me
Beyond us
Beyond us
I gave you, I gave you
I gave you everything and more
And in spite of that, a sea separates us
Now I don’t know, I don’t know
How much more I can possibly take
While I am here and over there is my heart
And forces exist
That bring us closer
That push us apart
And if they are confronted
What’s left?
What’s left?
