Canción Decente Lyrics in English Daniela Spalla

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Canción Decente by Daniela Spalla from Spanish to English.
Voy a dedicarte
I'm going to dedicate to you
Una canción de amor
A love song
Para que no pienses
So you don't think
Que lo nuestro solo me dolió
That what we had only hurt me
No te va a gustar
You won't like it
Te apena tanta sensibilidad
So much sensitivity bothers you
Dejemos la elegancia por un rato
Let's leave elegance for a while
Digamos la verdad
Let's tell the truth
Fuimos más grandes que el mar
We were bigger than the sea
Inundamos toda la ciudad
We flooded the whole city
Se nos ahogaban las horas
Our hours drowned
En lo profundo de tu sofá
In the depths of your sofa
Fuimos más eternos que el sol
We were more eternal than the sun
Y siempre van a quedar
And there will always remain
Miles de sombras que me hablen de ti
Thousands of shadows that speak to me of you
Para que nunca te pueda olvidar
So I can never forget you
Uh
Uh
Voy a dedicarte
I'm going to dedicate to you
Una canción decente
A decent song
No lo hice antes
I didn't do it before
Por miedo de arruinarlo y perderte
For fear of ruining it and losing you
Hoy que ya no volverás
Now that you won't come back
No queda más razón para ocultar
There's no more reason to hide
Que mi alma se incendió de tanto amarte
That my soul caught fire from loving you so much
Y en mi te quedarás
And in me you will remain
Fuimos más grandes que el mar
We were bigger than the sea
Inundamos toda la ciudad
We flooded the whole city
Se nos ahogaban las horas
Our hours drowned
En lo profundo de tu sofá
In the depths of your sofa
Fuimos más eternos que el sol
We were more eternal than the sun
Y siempre van a quedar
And there will always remain
Miles de sombras que me hablen de ti
Thousands of shadows that speak to me of you
Para que nunca te pueda olvidar
So I can never forget you
Uh
Uh
Voy a dedicarte está canción aunque te pese
I'm going to dedicate this song to you even if it bothers you
Vas a repetirla cuando menos te lo esperes
You're going to repeat it when you least expect it
Voy a dedicarte está canción aunque te pese
I'm going to dedicate this song to you even if it bothers you
Vas a repetirla cuando menos te lo esperes
You're going to repeat it when you least expect it
Voy a dedicarte está canción aunque te pese
I'm going to dedicate this song to you even if it bothers you
Vas a repetirla cuando menos te lo esperes
You're going to repeat it when you least expect it
Voy a dedicarte está canción aunque te pese
I'm going to dedicate this song to you even if it bothers you
Vas a repetirla cuando menos te lo esperes
You're going to repeat it when you least expect it

Did you like this lyrics translation?

ahogaban — were drowning

Ahogaban comes from the verb ahogar, meaning "to drown." It's a vivid and somewhat dramatic word that stands out in the lyrics.

In the song, Daniela Spalla uses it metaphorically to describe how time passed quickly and intensely when she was with her lover: "Se nos ahogaban las horas en lo profundo de tu sofá" (Our hours were drowning in the depths of your sofa). This imagery suggests that their time together was so consuming and deep that the hours simply melted away, making it a memorable and poetic choice.
