Close But Not Quite
CURTIS MAYFIELD, RICHARD RUSSELL, SAMPHA LAHAI SISAY
Fate lets you fall into her arms without a word
And only the size of your breath that hurts
I'm not one to go to church
But you made me believe in something more than hurt
I feel like I don't have the words
I feel like I don't have the words
Because I can't speak
Am I so naive?
I feel like I don't have the words
Because I can't speak
Of these words I've tried to recite
They are close but not quite
Of these words I've tried to recite
They are close but not quite
I'm so misunderstood, I'm so misunderstood
I'm so misunderstood, I'm so misunderstood
I don't know what to believe in
I guess your eyes said enough
I guess your sigh said enough
All of these words, no they can't express pain
It's like my life ended, there's not words that I've learned
Oh, and these are just words
And they can't express pain
These are just words, oh words
That can't express the pain, the pain in my soul
Speak the unspoken
A monster got woken up and now, now I'm in his part
Of these words I've tried to recite
They are close but not quite
Almost impossible to do
Reciting the makings of you
Fate lets you fall into her arms without a word
El destino te deja caer en sus brazos sin una palabra
And only the size of your breath that hurts
Y solo el tamaño de tu aliento que duele
I'm not one to go to church
No soy de los que van a la iglesia
But you made me believe in something more than hurt
Pero me hiciste creer en algo más que el dolor
I feel like I don't have the words
Siento que no tengo las palabras
I feel like I don't have the words
Siento que no tengo las palabras
Because I can't speak
Porque no puedo hablar
Am I so naive?
¿Soy tan ingenuo?
I feel like I don't have the words
Siento que no tengo las palabras
Because I can't speak
Porque no puedo hablar

I don't know what to believe in
No sé en qué creer
I guess your eyes said enough
Supongo que tus ojos dijeron suficiente
I guess your sigh said enough
Supongo que tu suspiro dijo suficiente
All of these words, no they can't express pain
Todas estas palabras, no, no pueden expresar el dolor
It's like my life ended, there's not words that I've learned
Es como si mi vida hubiera terminado, no hay palabras que haya aprendido
Oh, and these are just words
Oh, y estas son solo palabras
And they can't express pain
Y no pueden expresar el dolor
These are just words, oh words
Estas son solo palabras, oh palabras
That can't express the pain, the pain in my soul
Que no pueden expresar el dolor, el dolor en mi alma

Habla lo no hablado
