Así es la vida [English translation]
Así es la vida [English translation]
To some
...rainy days
are cold and sad
To me
...they have all the warmth
their bodies give off
To Adam
...the greatest sin
was that apple
To Eve
...the enormous desire
to make him sin
To some
...death is a fatal and terrible blow
To others
...just a ticket to freedom
He who has money
...asks the Almighty
to watch over him
He who robs
...asks the Almighty
to let him rob
CHORUS
That's life, ironic as it is
Some shoulder the cross
...others must carry
That's life, illogical as it is
Each of us, in the end
...with a story to tell or to quell
That's life, as...
There are those who spend their lives
...at the bottom of a bottle
There are those who think
...inflating their veins
they can fly
That's not the wisest way
...to find the answer
Summoning the devil
...is not the same
as [merely] seeing him arrive
CHORUS
That's life, ironic as it is
Some shoulder the cross
...others must carry
That's life, illogical as it is
Each of us, in the end
...with a story to tell or to quell
That's life, as...
With a kiss
...the most profound love
can be expressed
With a kiss, Judas
...sold out Christ
And I've got to know
...why it's always
the world's poor
...who down here
on Earth
...are never heard
That's life, illogical as it is
...ironic [and] drastic
That's life, ironic as it is
There are many who suffer
...shouldering the cross
Hear me [brothers and sisters]
...others must carry
That's life
...illogical as it is
Though accepting many things
...may be difficult
everything has its reason
...for being
That's life, confront it
...ironic as it is
at times cruel and dramatic
...at times pretty and magic
It's all part of this [thing called] life
That's life, illogical as it is
I believe in cause and effect
[and] am of the opinion
...those who do evil
life pays back
...in the same currency
That's life, ironic as it is
For if we search for freedom
...we find ourselves at war
over politics [and] nothing more
That's life, ironic, illogical as is
Enjoy what you have
...without thinking
about what has not come
...God will take care of that
That's life, ironic as it is
Some inflate their veins
...searching for the answer
and they find a sad ending
That's life, illogical as it is
...ironic as it is, drastic
It's simply life
