Jorge Drexler "Don de Fluir" lyrics

Translation to:en

Don de Fluir

Los dos parlantes afuera,La música en el balcónCayendo por la veredaEn sonoro borbotón.

Alguien me acerca un trago,Alguien me quiere hablar,Yo sólo quiero que miresMientras te miro girar.

Llevás el cabello sueltoY sandalias en los pies,Tu vestidito violetaCabe todo en una nuez.

Alguien me hace preguntas,Alguien me ofrece fumar,A todo digo que síCon tal de verte bailar.

Sólo quiero verte bailarSólo quiero verte bailarQuisiera verte girando, girando,Mirándome mirar.

Soy aquel tipo calladoCon aires de intelectualQue te mira de costadoSólo por disimular."Gracias, pero no, no bailo,Quizás la próxima vez,Tengo torpes las rodillasY tú veloces los pies"

Sólo quiero verte bailarSólo quiero verte bailarQuisiera verte girando, girando,Mirándome mirar.

Porque bailas,Como quien respira,Con un antiguo don de fluir...Bailas,Y parece tan fácilComo dejar el corazón latir

Los dos parlantes afuera,La música en el balcónCayendo por la veredaEn sonoro borbotón..

"Los músicos no bailamos,Ya habrás oído decir,Gracias de todos modosY gracias por insistir".

Sólo quiero verte bailarSólo quiero verte bailarQuisiera verte girando, girando,Mirándome mirar.

Porque bailas,Como quien respira,Con un antiguo don de fluir.

Gift of flowing

Two speakers outside,the music on the balconyfallin on the sidewalkin a gushing sound.

Someone gives a drink,someones wants to talk to meI just want you to watch mewhile I see you spinning around

You have your hair downand sandals on your feet,your little purple dressfits in a nut

Someones asks me questions,someone offers me a smoke,and I say yes to everythingjust to see you dance

I just wanna see you danceI just wanna see you danceI would like to see you spinning around, spinning aroundwatching me watching you

I'm that quiet guywith an air of intellectualthat it's looking at you from the side,just to hide it,"Thanks, but no, I don't dance,maybe next time,My knees are badand your feet are fast"

I just wanna see you danceI just wanna see you danceI would like to see you spinning around, spinning aroundwatching me watching you

Because you dance,like someone who is breathing,with an old gift of flowing,you danceand it's look so effortless,like letting a heart beat

Two speakers outside,the music on the balconyfallin on the sidewalkin a gushing sound.

"We, musicians don't dance,you probably heard that before,thank you anywayand thank you for insisting."

I just wanna see you danceI just wanna see you danceI would like to see you spinning around, spinning aroundwatching me watching you

Because you dance,like someone who is breathing,with an old gift of flowing.
