Ana Tijoux: Las horas• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnRywV8Hh-U
Hace horas que te espero y hace horas no te veo hace horas que te quiero pero hace horas que te pierdo hace horas que te espero y hace horas no te veo hace horas que te quiero pero hace horas que te pierdo Hace horas que te pierdo en esta esquina sólo me acompaña esta tímida neblina el sabor de tus besos impregnados al vapor de este solitario invierno quizás me olvidaste o quizás la verdad tú solo me borraste este amor es un chiste triste triste como se siente cuando todo lo perdiste la miel la piel y el riel cual es el sentido cuando la vida luego es tan cruel dame más tiempo frecuento un momento juro que mi sombra será tan discreta como tu silencio pero nunca me respondes …

KenningsA kenning is a form of metaphor, originally used in Anglo-Saxon and Norse poetry.
In a kenning, an object is described in a two-word phrase, such as 'whale-road' for 'sea'.
Some kennings can be more obscure than others, and are close to being a riddle.

Wrecking Ball"
We clawed, we chained our hearts in vainWe jumped never asking why
We kissed, I fell under your spell.A love no one could deny
Don't you ever say I just walked awayI will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my lifeI will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ballI never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your wallsAll you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck meI put you high up in the sky
And now, you're not coming downIt slowly turned, you let me burn
And now, we're ashes on the groundDon't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want youI can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you
En vano hoy mi corazón saltó, Pero sin preguntar, hoy te besé Un hechizo fue Amor, no lo puedo negar No me digas que sólo me alejéYo siempre te amaré Ya no mentiré, por ti escaparé Yo siempre te amaré Es como una Demolición Golpea fuerte el corazón cada muro en mi derribas hoy lo único que hiciste tu, fue destruir sólo, fue destruir Te puse en lo alto de Cielo Y ahora no bajarás Esto cambio el fuego Me quemó Cenizas quedarán No me digas que sólo me alejé Yo siempre te amaré Ya no mentiré, por ti escaparé Yo siempre te amaré
