A Thousand Kisses Deep

Hay momentos en que el tiempo no corre; se agolpa, horada a otros

Señala la existencia que retiene…


The ponies run, the girls are young,
The odds are there to beat.
You win a while, and then it´s done
Your little winning streak.
And summoned now to deal
With your invincible defeat,
You live your life as if it´s real,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

I´m turning tricks, I´m getting fixed,
I´m back on Boogie Street.
You loose your grip, and then you slip
Into the masterpiece
And maybe I had miles to drive,
And promises to keep:
You ditch it all to stay alive,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

And sometimes when the night is slow,
The wretched and the meek,
We gather up our hearts and go,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

Confined to sex, we pressed against
the limits of the sea:
I saw there were no oceans left
For scavengers like me.
I made it to the forward deck
I blessed our remnant fleet
And then consented to be wrecked,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

I´m turning tricks, I´m getting fixed,
I´m back on Boogie Street.
I guess they won´t exchange the gifts
That you were meant to keep.
And quiet is the thought of you
The file on you complete,
Except what we forgot to do,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.


And sometimes when the night is slow
The wretched and the meek,
We gather up our hearts and go,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

The ponies run, the girls are young
The odds are there to beat.
You win a while, and then it´s done
Your little winning streak.
And summoned now to deal
With your invincible defeat,
You live your life as if it´s real,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.
